Holcim is the job cuts in Spain is not big on that stuff. Only on the website of the Spanish cement company to find a dry communiqué. This Holcim announces plans to reduce about a third of the workforce in Spain. This affects up to 295 jobs at various locations on the Iberian Peninsula. In this figure, and a social plan was agreed after negotiations with employee representatives earlier this month.
Thus, the cement plant in the southern Spanish city of Lorca will be closed by year end. It was built in the 1960s. Last worked there for 60 employees. Also, the two cement kilns in central Spain Yeles plant be shut down indefinitely. Even with construction materials such as aggregates, concrete or mortar Holcim plans to cut output and "some facilities" quite close to. In addition, the administration should be centralized and streamlined.

cement handled as a viscose fluid
There should be enough water to fill the voids, so the particles of sand rub against each other, dramatically increasing the apparent viscosity as the shear rate increases. Other materials that exhibit this type of behavior are concentrated (especially deflocculated) aqueous suspensions of china clay, titanium oxide, corn flour, and wet cement aggregates. Viscoplastic fluids are those that appear to show a "yield stress." That is, a certain amount of shear stress must be applied to the material before it can begin to flow, or deform. Whereas in fact it seems that if flow is measured over a wide enough range of shear rates, no yield stress really does exist,5 the concept of a yield stress remains very convenient, because a number of materials do closely approximate to this type of behavior.
If the material is being sheared but at less than the yield shear stress (Ryield), then the material will deform "elastically" and flow as a rigid body and not like a fluid. The classic example of this type of

....Cementitious materials for concrete: standards, selection and propertiesProvides information on the standards that apply in South Africa to cementitious materials for concrete. Guidance is given on selection for various applications, includes graphs of strength performance, and discusses, briefly, the manufacture and properties of cementitious materials and fillers. The cementitious materials dealt with are all based on portland cement and many contain a "cement extender". Masonry cements are outside the scope of this leaflet since they are not intended for use in concrete....
