Weathering of Stone Mountain Granite
The weathering of Stone Mountain Granite (adamellitc) forms kaolinite, endcllite, allophane and gibbsite of which kaolinite is the most stable. Bulk density ranges from 2.65 in fresh rock to a minimum of 1.48 in saprolite. It is a good index of weathering. Abrasion pH ranges from 5.0 in saprolite to 9.3 in fresh rock, and is direct]y related to bulk density and the amount of clay mineral. Among...
متن کاملEmanation from Granite Countertops
Emanation of radon ( 222 Rn) from granite countertops was measured using continuous and integrating radon monitors, and in air collected from encapsulated pieces of the countertops. A majority of the countertops emitted a measurable amount of radon. Although the granites contained the precursors, no thoron ( 220 Rn) emanation was detected. Gamma-ray spectroscopy was used to determine amounts of...
متن کاملFleet Management
Fleet management addresses the problem of managing fleets of trailers, containers, boxcars, taxicabs, locomotives and business jets. In many applications, requests to be moved from one location to another arrive randomly over time. Since it may take days to move from one location to the next, it is often useful (even necessary) to reposition equipment before a customer demand is known. We use t...
متن کاملGranite: From genesis to emplacement
At low temperatures (<750 °C at moderate to high crustal pressures), the production of suffi cient melt to reach the melt connectivity transition (~7 vol%), enabling melt drainage, requires an infl ux of aqueous fl uid along structurally controlled pathways or recycling of fl uid via migration of melt and exsolution during crystallization. At higher temperatures, melting occurs by fl uid-absent...
متن کاملFleet Management
FOR MOST LAW ENFORCEMENT AND EMERGENCY SERVICES AGENCIES, THE costs related to the purchasing, equipping, operating and maintaining of fleets is the largest single recurring cost, outside that of personnel. The cost of acquiring vehicles, the costs associated with equipping and maintaining these vehicles, and escalating fuel costs have created difficulties for many departments— including police...
