Title: PROCESS CONTROL OF MINERAL AGGREGATES
Accession Number: 00300411
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: An aggregate process control program currently used by a multiplant aggregate producer is described. The success of the program is credited to the rapid feedback of test data directly to plant management. The program uses district and plant laboratories staffed with from one to three technicians for conducting daily tests for gradation control and a central laboratory for determining other important properties of aggregates and the products in which they are used. Benefits of the program--including savings that result from minimizing rejections, improved customer relations, and other services performed by the responsible department--are emphasized. The importance of a working knowledge of basic statistical concepts by both aggregate technicians and plant management is stressed. /Author/
