    AGRICULTURE LIME

    AGRICULTURE LIME
    Agricultural Lime is one of the limestone quarrying industry's traditional products, recognised for centuries as an important farming supplement and is still widely used today to help maximise crop yields and minimise the use of other, more costly fertilisers. Over time the acidity of soils tends to increase. The addition of calcium carbonate helps stabilise the acidity of the soil and provides essential calcium for support of crops. Liming is well understood to hold the key to improving crop growth and yields by limiting the adverse affects of high soil acidity (low pH values). Substantial research has been done on the optimal pH range for various crops. The complete liming solution for Farmers Regular pH testing forms the basis of successful agricultural lime application. Longcliffe offers this service as part of their customer support package along with field mapping and expert advice on products and application techniques. >>>

    LIMESTONE

    LIMESTONE
    Limestone is a sedimentary rock formed from compressed plant and animal remains at the bottom of lakes and seas. The hardness and density of limestone can vary widely, so it is wise to seek advice from us on which limestone is most suitable for your intended use. Most limestones come in beige or cream, however the Amarestone range has been extended from off-white through to a dense black and can be honed, antiqued or highly polished to create the desired effect. >>>

    FILTER BED

    FILTER BED
    Freestanding filter beds can be subject to high circumferential stresses resulting from daily and seasonal temperature fluctuations. The passive pressures, which result from radial movements of the wall during cooling, are especially critical. Traditional brick, cast-in-situ concrete and stiffly joined structures have high levels of failure associated with the development of excessive circumferential stresses. The passive pressures at wall/filter medium interface increase with time in a ratcheting manner during successive cycles of expansion and contraction, causing an escalation of circumferential stresses induced in the wall. The failure normally occurs suddenly, although it may take years to develop and even with thorough and regular visual inspection it is difficult to predict. As CIRA Report 58 states, The failure by ring tension is characterised by vertical cracks which progressively increase in width, but many years may lapse before the wall collapses. In designing for long-term serviceability it is essential to understand the nature of the stress escalation phenomenon. Charcon Specialist Products research has identified the weakness inherent in the stiff and stiffly connected panel structures and the potential problem of low cycle fatigues of highly stressed, stiffly connected panel structures when subjected to thermal stress fluctuations. Charcon Specialist Products has long recognised the dangers of insufficient flexibility and their beds incorporate a specially designed and patented panel to panel connection assembly. This assembly combines the unique features of high strength to enhance structural integrity and high flexibility to prevent the development of excessive circumferential stresses due to temperature variations. These features make the assembly particularly durable and lead to longer life. An important aspect of this assembly system is that passive pressures are reduced to acceptable levels and do not play a critical role in the structural performance of Charcon Specialist Products filter beds and walls. Charcon Specialist Products has extensive experience in the design and construction of filter bed retaining walls of ring tension type. Many structures have been in service for over 30 years and are expected to continue satisfactorily for years to come. Patently Reliable Charcon Specialist Products’ patented system incorporates neoprene washers which prevent damage, arising from thermal movement, overcoming the problem of failure caused by passive resistance. Used for many years by water companies and authorities nationwide, the Charcon Specialist Products’ system not only offers total reliability but proven value and design flexibility in the construction of new, and the repair of, existing filter bed walls. >>>

    COMPACT VARIETY OF LIMESTONE - TRAVERTINE

    COMPACT VARIETY OF LIMESTONE - TRAVERTINE
    TRAVERTINE Travertine is a compact variety of limestone formed along streams, particularly where there are waterfalls and around hot or cold springs. Characterised by naturally occuring pitted holes and troughs in its surface, Travertine often has these tiny holes filled with grout to produce a smooth finish. When pure, travertine is white, but like other natural stone, can take on a variety of warm hues and colours due to impurities such as clay and sand. Good quality Travertine is hard wearing and a great disguise for dirt! So a fantastic stone for heavy duty areas. The gallery below shows a selection form our Premium Travertine range. We stock a variety of sizes and finishes so please do call for further information or click ‘stone details’ below. Travertine prices start at £20 m2. >>>

    TRAVERTINE - LIMESTONE

    TRAVERTINE - LIMESTONE
    Travertine is an extremely hardwearing stone that has been used for floors and walls since Roman times. It is formed from hot springs bubbling up through underground limestone which results in the characteristic small holes in the stone. These holes may be filled at the quarry and the tiles honed to give a smooth, matt contemporary look or they can be left unfilled and tumbled to give a more rustic appearance. Like marble, travertine can be used throughout the home. >>>

    LIMESTONE

    LIMESTONE
    Limestone Formed over millions of years, Limestone is a sedimentary rock made up largely of seashells. A hardwearing stone, Limestone has become extremely popular in both traditional and contemporary décor due to the variety of shades and finishes. Pure limestone is almost white; but impurities, such as clay and sand result in a vast array of colour from pure creamy white to black. Boniti offers a large range of limestone tiles in various sizes, for both inside and out, plus mosaics, baths, basins and shower trays. This gallery shows just a sample from our collection, so please do call or visit our showroom if you would like see our full range, find out more about sizes and prices or if you would like us to source what you are looking for. >>>
