2. Engineered stone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineered_stone

   Engineered stone. Engineered stone is a composite material made of crushed stone bound together by an adhesive to create a solid surface. The adhesive is most commonly polymer resin, with some newer versions using cement mix. This category includes engineered quartz (SiO 2), polymer concrete and engineered marble stone. [1]

3. Epoxy granite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epoxy_granite

   Epoxy granite, also known as synthetic granite, [1] is a polymer matrix composite and is a mixture of epoxy and granite commonly used as an alternative material for machine tool bases. Epoxy granite is used instead of cast iron and steel for improved vibration damping, longer tool life, and lower assembly cost, and thus better properties for ...

4. Polymer concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymer_concrete

   Polymer concrete, also known as Epoxy Granite, is a type of concrete that uses a polymer to replace lime -type cements as a binder. In some cases the polymer is used in addition to Portland cement to form Polymer Cement Concrete (PCC) or Polymer Modified Concrete (PMC). [1] Polymers in concrete have been overseen by Committee 548 of the ...

5. Prefabrication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prefabrication

   Prefabrication. Prefabrication is the practice of assembling components of a structure in a factory or other manufacturing site, and transporting complete assemblies or sub-assemblies to the construction site where the structure is to be located. Some researchers refer it to “various materials joined together to form a component of the final ...

6. Precast concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precast_concrete

   Precast concrete is a construction product produced by casting concrete in a reusable mold or "form" which is then cured in a controlled environment, transported to the construction site and maneuvered into place; examples include precast beams, and wall panels, floors, roofs, and piles.

7. Decomposed granite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decomposed_granite

   Decomposed granite is a kind of granite rock that is weathered to the point that the parent material readily fractures into smaller pieces of weaker rock. Further weathering yields material that easily crumbles into mixtures of gravel -sized particles known as grus that further may break down to produce a mixture of clay and silica sand or silt ...
