What is the mix ratio of marble dust and white cement to make mar site?
dust is not mixed in marble and cement mixture.
Is quarry dust being a artificial sand?
Quarry dust, also known as crushed sand, is often used as an alternative to natural sand in various construction applications, making it a type of artificial sand. Quarry dust is produced as a byproduct during the crushing process of rocks in quarries. It consists of fine particles that are similar in size and shape to natural sand particles. FTM Machinery artificial sand presents the particle size distribution of quarry dust can be controlled during the crushing process, allowing for the production of a consistent particle size range. This makes it suitable for concrete production.
What is the cement render mix ratio for external concrete block walls?
A good mix for rendering is 1 part lime 1 part cement and 6 parts sharp sand(1:1:6). To ensure a good even mix the materials should be measured in buckets rather than shovels, this will ensure consistency throughout the job. Water should be added in small quantities to the mix, the consistency should be just stiff enough to stand on the trowel. The area to be rendered should be brushed down with a stiff brush, then doused with a hose pipe to remove the rest of the dust and prevent the surface 'sucking' the moisture out of the render. Always start at the top and work your way down and protect the floor with with boards or sheets as it is quite a messy job. It is advisable to apply in two coats, the first coat should be 'combed' before it begins to set.This is done with a special rendering comb. The second coat can be a little weaker, i.e 1:1:8. Dont worry about any imperfections in the finish as these can be scratched off the following day with a trowel to achieve a lovely even finish ready for painting. Its my opinion to use a ratio of 4 sharp washed sand to 1 part cement, Bycol added to the water to aid in the flow of the cement but its not that important once your skill level is up there. Lime is not necessary and 1:6 is far too weak. 2 applications of render should be avoided at all costs. No you cant scratch it off the next day. Secrete/float the walls 1-2 hrs max after its applied. When floating the walls make sure the surface is sprayed with a fine mist to keep it moist. Small golf ball size blobs of render mix can be thrown on to fill any low spots whilst floating. And use a teflon float not a trowel. Be sure the wall prior to rendering is paint free & hosed down. the more water on the wall the better and if in direct sunlight work in small sections...2x1 mt
Can you install ceramic tile over stained concrete and if so what is the preparation for the existing concrete?
Bead blast or score the concrete first anything from a wire brush to a floor sander might work...be VERY CAREFUL with the dust though
Is gravel a fine aggregate?
Gravel can be composed of varying sizes of stone, sand, and fine dust, with the coarse stone measuring up to about 2 inches. Large stone is often referred to as ballast or sometimes, pit run. Even larger stone (6" to 24") is called rip-rap. Rip-rap is used to armor the soil to prevent erosion from water runoff. If you are using boulders or rip-rap, then gravel would probably be considered a fine aggregate. But if you are using gravel under a new sidewalk, say, then gravel would be somewhat coarse compared to the sand and fine dust in it.

What chemicals does a rock quarry produce?
A rock quarry produces rock - gravel, cobble, pea gravel, stones, slabs, all grades and sizes of rock- as its products. None of these are commonly called chemicals. In the way of waste there are some chemicals: * Explosives residues * Anti-dust agents for loose rock (latex etc.) * Oils and greases from equipment. * Gaseous emissions - CO2, SOx, NOx (from fuels)
