  • CUT STONE CONSTRUCTION AND MASONRY METHOD
    Publication number: 20140245679
    Abstract: The cut stone construction and masonry method is a wall construction technique using the Flemish bond pattern and utilizing natural stone cut in blocks. The technique employs only vertically oriented semi-dry mortar layers between the stones. No horizontal mortar layers are used in the construction, except at the foundation level. Use is made of the dry-stacking, horizontal surface bonding techniques developed by the ancient Egyptians.

  • Measuring cell for determining oxygen concentrations in a gas mixture
    Patent number: 3974054
    Abstract: Measuring cell for determining oxygen concentrations in a gas mixture having a partition consisting of an electrolyte material such as ZrO.sub.2, which reversibly reacts with oxygen and is ion conductive. The measuring cell is characterized in that the partition closes a hollow body and projects therefrom so that the electrodes may be provided on the same side to reduce disturbing influences on the measurement.
