This article talks about the possibility of production of portland-composite cement in cement plant Kakanj in accordance with the requirements of EN 197-1. By that standard cement class 52,5N must have a compressive strenght greater or equal 20MPa after 2 days, and after 28 days greater or equal 52,5MPa. Portland-composite cement is ...

Research focus of this paper are stresses in concrete, reinforcement and tendons, cracks and deflections of the prestressed girders of “Type A” in order to optimize the span of such girder for the same amount of tendons and reinforcing steel. Serviceability Limit State (SLS) is a condition in which construction ceases to ...

The paper presents investigation of the influence of water to cement ratio, w/c, to speed the corrosion of concrete and reinforcing steel in concrete caused by salts of magnesium. The samples were preparatory varying w/c (0,5 and 0,7). The test samples were treated nine months in the following solutions: 5% MgCl2, 5% MgSO4, 5% MgCl2 ...

Polymer bonded Nd-Fe-B magnets belong to the group of functional composite materials, which consist mainly of two components: a polymer binder (PPS, PA) and magnetic particles of Nd-Fe-B alloy. The appropriate amounts of polymer binder, magnetic powder and additives are compounded by the twin screw extruder into a compound, that can ...

In this paper will be presented a practical example of the fuel savings in the process of hot-dip galvanizing. Reconstruction of the line is carried out during the transition of equipment from one to another location. Total power of the melting furnace it was 2.4 MW, and hot air generator for drying oven, has a power of 600 kW. With ...

Phase diagram of the Al-Sn-Ga ternary system was calculated using optimized thermodynamic parameters for binary sub-systems based on CALPHAD method. Four vertical sections were calculated: Ga0.5Sn0.5-Al, Al0.5Sn0.5-Ga, Al0.5Ga0.5-Sn, and Al0.9GaSn0.1-Ga. Calculated liquidus projection of the Al-Sn-Ga ternary system and isothermal sec...

The complicated reactions are appeared in the liquid iron under the influence of interaction parameters of basic and added elements during oxidation or addition of certain elements. These reactions may explain the appearance some of phenomena during the production with the negativeconsequences on the final material. Some phenomena as defe...
