Concrete Mix Design Quality Control and Specification

Concrete Mix Design Quality Control and Specification

The nature of concrete is rapidly changing and with it there are rising concerns. Thoroughly revised and updated this fourth edition of Concrete Mix Design Quality Control and Specification addresses current industry practices that provide inadequate durability and fail to eliminate problems with underperforming new concrete and defective testing. Many specifications now require additional criteria in an attempt to improve durability or other properties. This book discusses the trend towards adding performance requirements to existing prescriptive specifications. It also explores the matter of prescription versus performance specification and especially the specification of non-strength-related performance such as durability. What’s new in the Fourth Edition: Examines water-to-cement ratio as a declining criterion of quality and durability Discusses the diminishing availability of suitable natural sands and growing industry concerns regarding the environmental impact of their use Considers advances in concrete admixtures and their ever-increasing use Advocates reliability of testing as a vital feature of the shift from prescriptive to performance specifications Addresses cement replacement materials as they relate to greenhouse gas and sustainability Concrete Mix Design Quality Control and Specification explores producing designing controlling or specifying concrete and addresses issues related with sustainability and the impact of new concrete materials such as ready mixed geopolymers magnesium oxide and calcium carbonate. The text is an ideal resource for concrete technologists producers and specifiers and contractors on large projects

Job Shop Lean An Industrial Engineering Approach to Implementing Lean in High-Mix Low-Volume Production Systems

Job Shop Lean An Industrial Engineering Approach to Implementing Lean in High-Mix Low-Volume Production Systems

In the 1950’s the design and implementation of the Toyota Production System (TPS) within Toyota had begun. In the 1960’s Group Technology (GT) and Cellular Manufacturing (CM) were used by Serck Audco Valves a high-mix low-volume (HMLV) manufacturer in the United Kingdom to guide enterprise-wide transformation. In 1996 the publication of the book Lean Thinking introduced the entire world to Lean. Job Shop Lean integrates Lean with GT and CM by using the five Principles of Lean to guide its implementation: (1) identify value (2) map the value stream (3) create flow (4) establish pull and (5) seek perfection. Unfortunately the tools typically used to implement the Principles of Lean are incapable of solving the three Industrial Engineering problems that HMLV manufacturers face when implementing Lean: (1) finding the product families in a product mix with hundreds of different products (2) designing a flexible factory layout that fits hundreds of different product routings and (3) scheduling a multi-product multi-machine production system subject to finite capacity constraints. Based on the Author’s 20+ years of learning teaching researching and implementing Job Shop Lean since 1999 this book Describes the concepts tools software implementation methodology and barriers to successful implementation of Lean in HMLV production systems Utilizes Production Flow Analysis instead of Value Stream Mapping to eliminate waste in different levels of any HMLV manufacturing enterprise Solves the three Industrial Engineering problems that were mentioned earlier using software like PFAST (Production Flow Analysis and Simplification Toolkit) Sgetti and Schedlyzer Explains how the one-at-a-time implementation of manufacturing cells constitutes a long-term strategy for Continuous Improvement Explains how product families and manufacturing cells are the basis for implementing flexible automation machine monitoring virtual cells Manufacturing Execution Systems and other elements of Industry 4. 0 Teaches a new method Value Network Mapping to visualize large multi-product multi-machine production systems whose Value Streams share many processes Includes real success stories of Job Shop Lean implementation in a variety of production systems such as a forge shop a machine shop a fabrication facility and a shipping department Encourages any HMLV manufacturer planning to implement Job Shop Lean to leverage the co-curricular and extracurricular programs of an Industrial Engineering department | Job Shop Lean An Industrial Engineering Approach to Implementing Lean in High-Mix Low-Volume Production Systems

Experiential Marketing Consumer Behavior Customer Experience and The 7Es

Experiential Marketing Consumer Behavior Customer Experience and The 7Es

Why do some brands make us feel good while others frustrate us? What makes us engage with certain brands rebuy the same products return to the same store or revisit the same destination over and over again? Is there a framework underlying how past and lived shopping experiences can affect our future experiences our buying decisions and our brand loyalty? In this exciting new book Wided Batat introduces readers to the new customer experience framework and the era of the Experiential Marketing Mix. She introduces the concept of the 7Es (Experience Exchange Extension Emphasis Empathy Emotional touchpoints Emic/Etic process); a tool that focuses on the consumer as a starting point in marketing strategies. By using these companies can design suitable emotional and profitable customer experiences in a phygital context (physical place and digital space) including both offline and online digital experiences. Batat argues that a traditional product-centric should be replaced by the appropriate mix of 7Es based upon a more consumer/experience-centric logic. Experiential Marketing is a guide to building experiences consumers cannot forget. It will be of interest for CEOs brand managers marketing and communication professionals students and anyone eager to learn more about how to design the ultimate customer experience in a new phygital. In this book Professor Batat combines theory and practice and gives readers an overview of: the origins and the rise of the customer experience logic the 7Es of the new experiential marketing mix and the challenges for the future. | Experiential Marketing Consumer Behavior Customer Experience and The 7Es
