Cement is one of the most popular of all building materials. Modern cement is made in special plants consisting of several buildings, each handling a step in the manufacturing process. Various raw materials arrive by rail and are kept under cover i n the material storage building. Next, a conveyor moves these materials to the kiln building, where they are mixed in measured amounts. They are then fed into a rotary kiln, where heat starts a series of chemical reactions, and

As railroads began hauling logs from cutting sites to mills, new machines were developed to speed unloading. Log Unloaders, similar to overhead industrial cranes, were developed to remove an entire carload of logs in one pass using giant arms. Used at saw mills of every size, the design is ideal for small operations where space is limited. Since they can be constructed almost anywhere, they can be used to build a mill without the traditional log pond. Like the prototype,

From the earliest days of railroading, the civil engineers who laid out the line faced low spots, streams and other obstacles that had to be crossed. This required some sort of bridge, and in many cases, a trestle was a cheaper, faster option. Tres tles consist of a series of piers, called bents, which support the track. Wood was the favored building material until the 1940s, and many survive on branches and less busy lines to this day. Where piers could not be erected, such

Finding oil is hard work - and so is getting it out of the ground. If the oil is thin enough and there's enough underground pressure, it may flow into the well on its own. This may continue for a few hours or a few years, but in time, the pressure drops. Today, nearly 95% of all US oil wells require pumps to stay in production and one of the most common is the walking beam or ''horse head.''.
