Water: An Ingredient for Production of Concrete | Concrete Technology

For the production of cement concrete, water is one of the most important ingredients as hydration of cement is possible only in the presence of water. The hydration of cement forms gel which on hardening gives strength to the concrete. Thus concrete of any type cannot be prepared without water. The properties of water have been found to influence the [...]

Scheduling Procedures for Production | Production Management

There are several scheduling procedures in use. We take the following scheduling example: 1. Shortest Processing Time (SPT) Procedure: A schedule obtained by sequencing jobs for production in non-decreasing order of processing times is called a shortest processing time (SPT) schedule. This schedule minimizes mean flow time F̅. In addition, the SPT rule also minimizes mean lateness and means waiting [...]

Variables Used in Production System | Industrial Engineering

In this article we will discuss about the independent input and dependent variables used in Production System. Independent Input Variables: Workpiece Material: It is selected to meet the functional design criteria. While some metals like cast iron, aluminium machine easily; others like stainless steel, titanium are difficult to machine. Part Geometry: The size and shape of workpiece is decided by [...]
