Difficult to decode that Dud, are you trying to be bearish?

Zoo .. it's a rabbit mate (Teddytassens Biran apparently)

If we wanted to know what is/isn't being said on the 'other' thread we'd have a look for ourselves 👍

Strange that no one on the exclusive thread has mentioned the shocking accounts?

All seem to be immersed in concrete?

All seems to be in the air?

Accts, without backing, bust.

Not seen anyone of the Neil gang, mention the accts, wonder why?

[boochy gongles] 28/8/2021 14:23

I don't wish to be rude .. but that's horrible 😐

Not sure it's a wombat though, the ears are too long ?

Jen,

A ballpark figure based on 0.03% graphene additive by weight of cement(1). So, 3kg of graphene would be added to 10,000kg of cement for this job. With a ratio of 1 part cement, 5 parts aggregate, you are looking at around 60t of concrete for this job.

Concrete density is 2,400kg/m3 so roughly 25m3 or 166m2 with a thickness of 150mm. If the service road is 2.5m wide (a guesstimate from the video) it would be about 50m long, allowing extra mix for contingency. This ties in with rough dimensions of the GEIC from google maps, assuming the service road goes down the side to meet up with the existing exit at the back of the building.

Some additional information re quantity of graphene additive from LinkedIn:

The £65M Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre (GEIC) building on the Manchester University campus will, on the 2nd September, have its first ever Graphene Enhanced Concrete (GEC) external slab constructed, using revolutionary Concretene technology developed in partnership by Nationwide Engineering Group, the University of Manchester and the GEIC. With a reduced thickness from 250mm to 150mm, all reinforcement removed and using just 3kg of Concretene graphene additive to achieve this, we are looking forward to pouring the first ever GEC at the true home of Graphene, Manchester.

It would be interesting to know the area of this pour which requires 3kg of graphene additive as we are given the thickness. Could someone pop over there with a tape measure please? 😂

Re ChangeMaker3D - Interesting that Non Exec Director, Jason Williams, is also Safety Specialist at UK Ministry of Defence and UK Government Liaison Officer in the USA ...

I noticed #leadershipmatters, one can always hope

Please don't think I'm boasting, I haven't posted anything particularly remarkable/hilarious .. it's more of an indication of how universally loathed Fest is.

its getting picked up all over.

With the efforts of an innovative company;

A revolution in the stability of concrete using graphene

An innovative foreign company with a revolutionary goal for sustainability has produced graphene-reinforced concrete, this time using it in residential structures.

According to the University Group of the Student News Agency, the innovative Versarien company used its graphene-reinforced concrete this time in a residential structure. The Cheltenham-based company delivered its flagship product to a housing company based in Simmons.

In May of this year, the world's first shipment of graphene-reinforced concrete for commercial use was used in Salisbury Amsbury Park to build a gym for military retirees.

By adding small amounts of graphene, this concrete is reinforced by about 30% compared to standard concrete, which means that it requires less material equivalent to achieve structural performance, which means reducing the effect of carbon and its side costs. The extra strength also reduces the need for steel, saving materials and time for construction companies.

"We used a relatively small concrete slab at Simmonds Yat," said Neil Ricketts, Versailles CEO.

The building in which this concrete is used belongs to a famous actor. "We are doing this small project because we are working with large concrete manufacturers and we need to be able to deliver this product to them," Neil added. "You can pick up the phone, call and the concrete will be delivered to you quickly."

This revolutionary concrete is designed for stability. Cement production is one of the main causes of global carbon dioxide emissions, but this new product is used in smaller quantities due to its greater strength. In this technology, liquid concrete is solidified through chemical reactions known as hydration and gelling, where water and cement form a reaction and a paste that dries and hardens over time.

Graphene, as a mechanical support and as a catalyst surface for the initial hydration reaction, provides better bonding at the microscopic scale and improves durability and corrosion resistance. The bottom line is that this concrete can be used exactly like standard concrete.

Versarin recently announced that it has signed a comprehensive agreement with Graphene Lab, a company based in South Korea, a company specializing in graphene produced by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and its products in Various fields are used, including sensors, OLEDs, and flexible transparent touch screens. The purpose of this agreement is to expand the scope of activities of both Versarin and Graphenolbs in South Korea

A bit of a tease...
