THE LATEST IMPROVEMENTS IN I-BEAMS PRODUCTION IN THE WORLD

Some specific aspects in the state of art regarding the improvements related to I-beams and parallel flanged I-beams production are presented in this paper. One practical solution in the variety of the conversions of the classical to the universal rolling stands is described in some more detail, as well as an overview of the latest improvements in I-beams and parallel flanged I-beams production in the world. So-called INP I-beams have tapered flanges v.s. parallel flanges concerned with parallel flanged I-beams, which are very difficult to be produced on classical rolling mills stands, but much easier and better to be produced on so-called universal rolling stands. Since the universal stands are expensive and are very difficult to fix at the existing rolling mills with classical rolling stands, then a conversion of classical to the universal rolling mills stands is the cheapest satisfactory solution. In a short overview are as well presented state of art technological improvements in parallel flanged I-beams production.&nbsp

Ružička days : International conference 17th Ružička Days “Today Science – Tomorrow Industry” : Proceedings

In front of you are the Proceedings of the International Conference 17th Ružička days: „Today Science – Tomorrow Industry“ that was held in Vukovar, Croatia at September 19-21, 2018. The main goal of this interdisciplinary conference is to promote excellence in science and engineering as well as application of up-to-date research results and technological achievements in industry. In its fifth issue (2011, 2013, 2015, 2017, 2019) the Proceedings continues with publishing of quality scientific and professional full papers in sections Chemical Analysis and Synthesis (2), Chemical and Biochemical Engineering (3), Food Technology and Biotechnology (4), Medical Chemistry and Pharmacy (2), Environmental Protection (9) and Meeting of Young Chemists (4). All the papers were thoroughly reviewed from respectable evaluators, to whom we express our gratitude. We are also thankful to all the authors and participants of the Ružička days, and to all that support and contribute in its organization; especially our international coorganizers EuCheMS, EFFoST and EHEDG, the members of organizing and scientific committee, plenary and invited lecturers, sponsors, and of course our highly skilled and committed associates, which put a lot of effort in preparation of this book
