Derek Chisholm is project manager for technical publications at
The Concrete Centre and has a background in concrete materials technology. John Gibbs is technical advisor for the European Ready-Mixed
Concrete Organisation (ERMCO). He has spent most of his career in the ready-mixed, quarrying and construction industries.

T. Harrison

Tom Harrison is technical director of the British-Ready Mix
Concrete Association and in that capacity chaired the committee that produced ‘Guidance to the Engineering Properties of Concrete’ from which this publication has developed.

J.Gibbs

In the design of concrete structures, engineers have the flexibility to specify particular concrete type(s) to meet the specific performance requirements for the project. For instance where calculated deflections exceed serviceability limits, the designer can achieve lower deflections by increasing the class of concrete and the associated modulus of elasticity, rather than by resizing members.
This publication will assist in designing concrete structures taylormade for particular applications.

    Why concrete? The main performance for this material is for the foundation to resist the load applied. This is very important as if it could not resist the load, the concrete foundation would break down and crumble and therefore would not be able to hold the materials above. The foundation must also be able to spread out the load over a bigger area as if it is not able to do this, the load will be applied to one area of the foundation only and that area will not be able to hold all of the load, which is why the load applied must be spread out over a bigger area.…

    Several mixtures of cement, aggregate, sand and water were mixed at different ratios to workability and compressive strength. The dry materials of the mixture were mixed and water was gradually added, the mixture was then placed in a cube and allowed to dry forming the concrete testing cube. Each of the four blocks containing different compositions of each material were then placed in a compressive testing machine and when each cube yielded, results were taken.…

    Every construction material and system has its own characteristics which to a greater or lesser extend influence the layout, span length, construction depth, stability system, etc. This is also the case for precast concrete, not only in comparison to steel, wood and masonry structures, but also with respect to cast in-situ concrete. Theoretically, all joints between the precast units could be made in such a way that the completed precast structure has the same monolithic concept as a cast in-situ one. However, this is a wrong approach and one, which is very labour intensive and costly. If the full advantages of precast concrete are to be realised, the structure should be conceived according to its specific design philosophy: long spans, appropriate stability concept, simple details, etc. Designers should from the very outset of the project consider the possibilities, restrictions and advantages of precast concrete, its detailing, manufacture, transport, erection and serviceability stages before completing a design in precast concrete…

    Hotel des Horlogers is a three star hotel that is owned by a Swiss Hotel Group known as Hotels Et Patrimoine. Hotel des Horlogers is one of the hotels, as the group owns six hotels in total, which are spread across Switzerland. Customers are assured quality service and satisfaction when they stay at Hotel des Horlogers. The main attraction of this hotel is the watchmakers’ tool collection that displays’ the finest arts and crafts that are used to make a watch. As per the name ‘Horlogers’ which can be derived from the French word ‘horlogerie’ which means wrist watch movement or a watchmaker, the hotel uses this attribute to gain clients. During my internship at the hotel, I worked as a Housekeeper for a period of five months and during this period, I cleaned bathrooms, made beds and vacuumed the floors. I experienced challenges but my supervisor, helped me achieve the standard quality of a bed. I think Housekeeping, which falls under the Rooms Division Department, is an important area of operation and management activity in a hotel, as Housekeeping deals with the cleanliness, and maintenance of the rooms, which also ensures that the room is ready for the guest.…
