The Science And Art Of The Manufacture Of Portland Cement With Observations On Some Of Its Constructive Applications (1877)

""The Science And Art Of The Manufacture Of Portland Cement: With Observations On Some Of Its Constructive Applications"" is a book written by Henry Reid and published in 1877. The book provides a comprehensive guide to the manufacturing process of Portland cement, including the chemical reactions involved, the materials used, and the machinery required. It also includes observations on the practical applications of Portland cement in construction, such as the production of concrete and mortar, and the use of cement in the construction of bridges, tunnels, and buildings. The book is intended for engineers, architects, and anyone interested in the science and art of cement manufacturing and its applications in construction. Reid's work is considered a seminal text in the field and has been widely cited and referenced in subsequent studies on cement manufacturing and construction engineering.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
