Excerpt from A Handbook for Cement Works Chemists As indicated by its title, this book is intended primarily for Cement Works Chemists, although it is hoped that it may be found of use in other laboratories. It has been the aim of the compiler, in order to keep the book within reasonable limits, to include only essential details of manipulation where this was possible without ambiguity. Each separate process will be found in a numbered paragraph, and a method once described is indicated in the text by that number when it has again to be carried out. An epitome of most of the processes will be found at the foot of the fuller description. In this way the book may be of use as a guide to younger and less experienced chemists, often found on cement works, as well as for reference purposes by the experienced. For the sake of uniformity the strengths and volumes of the solutions employed are stated according to Reddrop's system as described and followed by Phillips in his Engineering Chemistry.

Excerpt from The Chemistry and Testing of Cement From the earliest historical times, materials belonging to the class of calcareous cements have been used in the construction of buildings, the methods of preparing and applying them being the result of the experience of generations of builders, and undergoing little change in the course of centuries. The modern development of engineering practice, dating from the second half of the eighteenth century, gave a new importance to these materials, and brought about the invention of many new types of cement, some of which have in great measure superseded the older kinds. A large and important indus try has thus come into existence, and has gradually spread from a few local centres until it has become established in most parts of the civilised world.

Excerpt from A Manual of Cement Testing for the Use of Engineers and Chemists in Colleges and in the Field In order to insure uniformity of results in the testing of cement, it is essential that each test should invariably be made in precisely the same manner and under exactly the same conditions. A committee of the American Society of Civil Engineers has, with this aim in view, prepared and published a set of Standard Methods of Testing Cement, and these methods are to-day employed throughout the United States. This little volume, as its name implies, is a laboratory manual on cement testing, and is intended to assist in bringing about uniformity in the testing of cement. The authors have endeavored to present, in a somewhat condensed form, such directions as will enable a student in the laboratory or an operator in the field office to correctly interpret the Standard Methods of Testing and Specifications for Cement as published by the committee of the American Society of Civil Engineers, American Society for Testing Materials, Association of American Portland Cement Manufacturers, and the American Railway Engineers and Maintenance of Way Association; they have endeavored to give sufficient detail to enable all students to learn the same manipulations and thus be able to perform each test in a certain well defined and similar manner.
