Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Concrete Stone Manufacture Failures are a necessary part of success. The failures in the field of concrete products manufacture have at least justified the assertion, that, simple as the industry's pro cesses have seemed, they are of a nature demanding skill, judgment and tho/roughgoing workmanship. To have discovered even so little as this is to have made a begin ning in 'the way of success. Many have gone forward much further; some have turned failure into success and there are very few who have not learned through bitter experience. Those who have paid the most dearly for their knowledge are the most generous in giving it away. They have appreciated that ultimate success is built upon public confidence and that public confidence is won for a product when its per centage of failure is low. They have seen that they can not, in a broad sense, succeed in any way more surely than through the success of others. They are themselves but units in the structure of an industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Concrete-Block Manufacture: Processes and Machines The object of this book is to present in a simple manner those well-established principles of concreting which practice has shown applicable to the manufacture of concrete blocks for building hollow walls. The theoretical and technical questions which arise in connec tion with the industry are only considered in so far as benefit may result to the operator in the actual manufacture of blocks and their use in construction. The conclusions which have been reached are the result not only of the author's experience in actual work, but of a careful consideration of the successes and failures of a large number of operators throughout a series of years, supplemented by a careful weighing of the many articles bearing on particular phases of the subject which have been published in cement, engineering, and building magazines.

Download or read book Method of Proportioning Concrete Materials Screened and Unscreened Gravel Classic Reprint written by Roy Winchester Crum and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Method of Proportioning Concrete Materials, Screened and Unscreened Gravel The making of concrete is essentially a manufacturing process, but it suffers under the handicap of having no fixed plant location since the concrete must usually be made at the site of the structure. It is further more a chemical as well as a mechanical process, and is subject to various disturbing influences on that account. The factor that has had the most to do with the growth of the concrete industry and also with its slowness of scientific development has been the fact that anyone could take some cement, water, sand and stone, mix them together and get a. Substance that would set and harden. The job was so easy, it took a long time to establish the fact that most con crete so made was a very inferior article. That so much successful concrete work has been done in spite of poor methods is evidence of the value of the material. The basic requirements for the manufacture of concrete are today well established, and failure to make at least sound concrete is inexcusable.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Concrete: Its Manufacture and Use This condition can be overcome only by storing a considerable quantity of materials before the plant is erected or provided. Aggregates and cement must be on hand in such quantities as to insure continuous operation of the concrete plant. The cost of storage and rehandling is more than offset by the wages paid to skilled mechanics and superintendents if the work is delayed after the organization is in the field.

Download or read book The Ransome Book written by H. Colin Campbell and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ransome Book: How to Make and How to Use Concrete In issuing this booklet the Ransome Concrete Machinery Company is making a departure from usual practice that it is hoped will be popular. The Ransome line of machinery and concreting equipment has been subordinated to those fundamental practices which govern success in the use of concrete. The thought is this: However good the machine may be, the concrete cannot be all that it should be unless the human element can be controlled. The machine cannot do that. This is up to the man on the job. Success in the use of concrete, as in the use of any other building material, lies in following well-established rules that have proved themselves the proper guide. Concrete is too big a subject to be covered within the limited space of this booklet; but there have been gathered here useful data that are applicable to almost any and every kind of concrete work. Every page, it is believed, contains more than one reminder of the things that should be done but which are frequently overlooked or neglected. Among many sources of information on the uses of concrete are the numerous booklets and pamphlets issued by the Portland Cement Association.
