With high performance concrete, it is desirable that the specifications be performance-based. Class P(HPC) is intended for use in prestressed concrete members with a specified concrete compressive strength more than 6.0 ksi (approx. 41.4 MPa) and should be always used for specified concrete strength more than 10.0 ksi (68.9 MPa).

Read OnA typical layout of a mill using the kraft chemical pulping process is shown in figure 2-1. Mechanical, semichemical, and sulfite pulp mills differ in detail, particularly in wood preparation, fiber separation, and bleaching, but many of the downstream refining, bleaching, and papermaking processes are similar.
Read On11.6 Portland Cement Manufacturing 11.6.1 Process Description1-7 Portland cement is a fine powder, gray or white in color, that consists of a mixture of hydraulic cement materials comprising primarily calcium silicates, aluminates and aluminoferrites. More than 30 raw materials are known to be used in the manufacture of portland cement, and these
Read OnCement manufacturing is a complex process that begins with mining and then grinding raw materials that include limestone and clay, to a fine powder, called raw meal, which is then heated to a sintering temperature as high as 1450 °C in a cement kiln. In this process, the chemical bonds of the raw materials are broken down and then they are ...

The magnesium oxide content (MgO) shall not exceed 5.0% by mass.
Read OnDepending on the location and sophistication of the plywood mill, the veneer sheets may either be left outside to dry in the air or kiln-dried. Kiln-drying involves the drying of stacked veneer in batches or the continuous drying of sheets which are mechanically conveyed either on a continous belt or roller system through the length of the dryer.
Read OnHow to Stagger Lap Siding. For walls longer than 12 feet, you'll need to butt additional lengths of siding together. It's best to stagger the joints in each successive course to avoid noticeable patterns. Butt joints in adjacent courses should be spaced apart by at least two stud bays for 16-inch, o.c. framing or one bay for 24-inch, o.c ...
Read OnThe cement manufacturing process starts with the mining of limestone that is excavated from open cast mines.
