Title Concrete Mixing Plant Records
Description At the controls of the concrete mixing plant. On the chart is recorded the weight of sand, gravel, cement, and water that makes up each batch of concrete. The chart also shows which of the four mixers below received the batch of aggregate, cement, and water and when it was dumped from the mixer into the buckets for dispatch to the dam. The chart is also used to compute the daily production of the concrete mixing plant.
