Rational use of highly dispersed metal waste is an important issue of material science and environment protection. The quantity of the powdered metallic materials used in industry is steadily increasing; they are especially widely used in the enterprises producing iron powders, in metal sheet production, as well as in abrasive machining.

CHAPTER IV APPLICATION POSSIBILITIES OF HEAVY

CONCRETE Heavy concrete has high application possibilities the field of contra weights. The main contra material properties are their high density, resistance to external environment impacts and production cost. Contra weights are used to ensure stability of enginery – e.g., machinery, lifts, floodgates, cranes etc. It is also effective to use heavy concrete in underwater constructions due to its high density that is more notable because of the buoyant force (1), namely, the weight in the water depends on the material mass and density. Heavy concrete can be used to manufacture substructure of breakwaters. Another product category includes anchors which would suitable in fast currents or rocky seafloor. Institute of Building Production has developed construction scheme of such anchor that is shown Fig. 9.

As planned, the iron containing waste materials the density of product. The highest

obtained in this study is in range 4000 –kg/m3, though higher density concrete also

Elastic modulus of heavy concrete is higher than regular concrete mortar and is increasing with the

Optimization of packing was applied to decrease enlarge density.

Vibration of concrete was used briefly for of segregation as a result may be issued

of metal filler higher specific gravity. Potential drawback of steel punching is corrosion

ther researches.
