The research looked at some selected physical properties of <I>Brachystegia eurycoma</I>, such as axial dimension, roundness, sphericity, surface area, bulk density, solid density, porosity, and volume which are essential in the design and construction of the processing and handling equipments of <I>Brachystegia eurycoma</I>. All the above physical properties measured showed some deviations from the average values which is typical of agricultural biomaterials. Solid density showed the highest deviation of 4.04 g/mm<sup>3</sup> while the volume showed the least deviation of 0.01 mm<sup>3</sup> when compared to those of other physical properties. The angle of repose increased with the increase in the moisture content with a coefficient of determination of 0.98.
