The diagram illustrates the various stages and equipment involved in cement production and shows how cement is used in the concrete manufacturing process for construction purposes. Overall, both processes involve multiple steps and specialized tools. First, limestone and clay are crushed into a powder. This powder is then mixed and heated in a rotating kiln. Afterward, the mixture is ground into cement, which is packaged into bags for storage and sale. In addition to the cement-making process, the diagram highlights the steps involved in producing concrete, another essential material in the construction industry. Concrete is primarily composed of gravel, which makes up 50% of the mixture. Cement accounts for 15%, while sand and water represent 25% and 10% of the mix, respectively. All components are combined in a concrete mixer to produce the final product. In conclusion, cement, a key ingredient in concrete, is produced through a series of complex steps and requires various tools.
The given charts depict two different ways of protection for homes which are at risk of being flooded, and both of the houses are raised above ground level. The main difference between the two protection plans is whether there is a stopbank or not In the first diagram, the function of a stopbank as a barrier against flooding from nearby rivers is illustrated. This barrier, depicted as a mound near a drain/river, exceeds the predicted height of a 100-year flood. Additionally, the houses can be built on stilts to prevent flooding from rainwater, and there is a floodgate beneath the stopbank opened to allow the internal winding to drain off into the river. In contrast, the second illustration portrays the dire consequences of a house lacking such protection, directly exposed to overflowing water. In this case, buildings are also raised on stilts. The height of the stilts is 300mm above the 100-year flood level which is called freeboard. This measurement can secure the house against the flood.
