Refractory concrete at Spencer Works

摘要

The use of refractory concrete in the soaking pits at Llanwern (Spencer Works) of the British Steel Corporation has reduced maintenance and extended working lives. The performance of slab heating furnaces and other installations have also benefited from design changes incorporating monolithic refractories. These developments form the basis of talks given by Mr. A. Dickinson in lectures to Branches of the Institute of Refractories Engineers from time to time.
