location and infrastructure of industry
This document discusses factors that influence the location of industry and infrastructure. There are two main categories of location factors: physical factors and socio-economic factors. Physical factors include accessibility, climate, land availability, power sources, and proximity to raw materials. Socio-economic factors that influence industry location are capital availability, transportation and communication networks, government policies, available labor supply, and access to markets. The document also provides examples of key infrastructure sectors such as chemical, manufacturing, energy, food and agriculture, and defines infrastructure as the basic physical and organizational structures needed for an economy to function.
The Location Of Industry
There are several key factors that affect where industry chooses to locate, including accessibility to transportation for importing and exporting materials, a climate that attracts workers, availability of flat land and power, access to capital, communication links, government incentives, available labor supply, and access to markets. Industry classifications include primary industries dealing with raw materials, secondary industries involving manufacturing, tertiary industries providing services, and quaternary industries focused on research and development.
Industries
This document discusses different types and classifications of industries. It describes how industries can be categorized based on size (cottage, small-scale, large-scale), raw materials used (agro-based, mineral-based, etc.), and ownership (private, public, joint, cooperative, multi-national). It also outlines the key infrastructure and factors necessary to support industrial development, such as available resources, transportation, labor, capital, water supply and government policies. Additionally, it provides a brief overview of the history of industries transitioning from cottage to large mechanized factories, as well as technology's role in modern industrial processes and society's relationship with industry.
Industry
Heavy industries have historically located along the River Tees in northeast England due to access to raw materials like iron ore, coal, and limestone needed for steel production. The river allows large ships to transport these bulk materials cheaply. Today, some steel mills remain though access to local limestone is now the only original advantage. Light industries have grown up near motorways, offering quick transport of smaller consumer goods to wealthy markets like London. High-tech industries favor areas with skilled labor pools and amenities that attract workers, locating along motorway corridors between cities and universities.
Group Industry
The document discusses several factors that affect industrial location, including transportation, energy, markets, raw materials, government policy, site needs, labor, and capital. It then provides case studies of industries in different locations to illustrate how the importance of these factors has changed over time. The case studies include steel manufacturing on Teesside in the UK, footloose industries along the M4 motorway in the UK, heavy industries in the Rhine-Ruhr region of Germany, and industries in less economically developed countries.
Plant location
The document discusses the steps involved in selecting a location for a new industrial plant. The key steps are: 1) Deciding whether to locate domestically or internationally; 2) Selecting a suitable region based on factors like raw materials, markets, infrastructure, climate, and government policies; 3) Choosing a specific community or locality based on availability of labor, financing options, and amenities for workers; 4) Picking the exact site based on soil quality, size, topography, and waste disposal needs. Location is a critical economic decision that impacts long-term costs and business operations.
Upper six rest of module 2
Industries are influenced by many location factors such as raw materials, power, markets, labor, government policies, capital, transport, land, and the environment. In the past, industries tended to locate near raw materials and power sources, but they are now more "footloose" as transportation and infrastructure have improved. The northeast United States developed industries initially due to raw materials like iron ore and coal, as well as transportation via water and rail. Over time, industries decentralized due to changes in these factors as well as population shifts, new sources of energy, and government policies encouraging growth in other regions like the Sunbelt. Deindustrialization has occurred as manufacturing employment declines due to technological advances, outsourcing, and economic maturation

Secondary economic 2 new
The document discusses different types of industries and factors that influence where factories are located. It provides examples of heavy industry like iron and steel production that require raw materials to be located nearby. Light industries like electronics can locate in more places. Multinational corporations produce globally. The document also explains factors like resource materials, markets, transportation, labor, services, capital, and government policy all influence factory siting. Footloose industries are not tied to one location and can locate based on these factors.
What factors influence the location of factories?
The document discusses factors that affect the location of economic activities and factories. It identifies both physical factors such as access to raw materials, power sources, transportation routes, and available land, as well as human factors like the availability of labor, capital, markets, government policies, technology, employee amenities, and economies of scale. The document provides examples for some factors and poses questions to prompt thinking about how these location factors influence industrial site selection and design.
Agglomeration economies
Agglomeration refers to the concentration of industrial activities and firms in close geographic proximity. There are several benefits to industrial agglomeration including sharing of specialized labor pools and services, lower transportation costs, and production linkages between related industries. Quarry Bay in Hong Kong developed industrial agglomeration due to its coastal location and access to labor. The sugar refinery attracted related industries through vertical, horizontal, and diagonal linkages, leading to cumulative growth and an self-sustaining industrial district. Standard guidelines for industrial site planning include allocating a minimum of 35 acres for industrial plots with employee densities ranging from 8 to 30 people per acre depending on industry type.
Seondary and tertiary sectors in SA
The document discusses secondary and tertiary industries in South Africa. It notes that secondary industries compose 22% of GDP, contributing to job creation and economic empowerment. Dominant secondary industries include agri-processing, automotive, chemicals, ICT, metals, and textiles. Tertiary industries compose 66% of GDP and include services like transport, education, finance, and health. The document also describes different types of industries and factors influencing industrial development in South Africa, such as raw materials, labor supply, infrastructure, political intervention, and access to markets and trade.

1. For a hill sheep farm in the UK, list three inputs:
a. That are outside the farmer's control:
- Climate/weather
- Soil quality
- Relief/topography of the land
b. That the farmer could alter to increase output:
- Increase flock size
- Improve pasture quality through fertilization or reseeding
- Use shelter belts or other methods to protect sheep from harsh weather
2. Compare and contrast intensive vs extensive farming and commercial vs subsistence farming:
a. Intensive farming uses more inputs like capital, machinery, and technology per unit area of land. Extensive farming uses fewer
Tertiary Activities (3º ESO)
Tertiary activities provide services to people like tourism, education, and healthcare. They are characterized as being heterogeneous with a variety of services requiring different worker qualifications and company sizes. Tertiary activities are also intangible, require personal effort, cannot be stored, and must be close to consumers with low levels of mechanization. They are classified into social services like administration and education, distribution services like transport and trade, and services to companies and consumers.
Romanesque and gothic
1. Romanesque art from the 11th-12th centuries aimed to spread religion and bring people closer to God through symbolic art commissioned by the church. Sculptures and paintings used bright colors and unrealistic figures to teach Christian stories.
2. Gothic art from the 12th-15th centuries reflected the growing power of cities as noblemen and merchants also commissioned art. Sculptures and paintings became more realistic and detailed in depicting emotions and movements.
3. Gothic architecture featured pointed arches, rib vaults, flying buttresses, and large stained glass windows to fill cathedrals with light representing heaven.
Economic activities
Economic activities involve the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services to satisfy human needs and wants. They have three main factors: production, distribution and commercialization, and consumption. There are four main types of economic activities: primary involves extracting natural resources; secondary involves manufacturing; tertiary involves providing services; and quaternary involves high-tech research and information services. Capitalism is based on a free market system where supply and demand determine prices. Key economic agents in the market include families, companies, and the public sector which provides services and infrastructure to citizens.

Arte del Renacimiento para 4 ESO
El documento resume las principales características del arte del Renacimiento italiano, incluyendo la arquitectura, escultura y pintura del Quattrocento y Cinquecento. Recuperó la tradición clásica griega y romana, y plasmó la belleza ideal humana a través del estudio de la anatomía y la naturaleza.

Earth Moon And Sun
The document describes the relative sizes and motions of the Earth, Moon, and Sun as seen from Mars. The Earth and Moon are spherical, and the Moon is about 1/4 the size of Earth. The Moon orbits Earth every 28 days and Earth orbits the Sun every 365 days. The Sun is about 110 times bigger than Earth and appears to move across the sky and rise in the east and set in the west, causing the cycle of night and day.
Mercator
The document discusses different map projections and their distortions. It notes that while the Mercator projection stretches landmasses like Africa to flatten the globe onto a 2D surface, it distorts their actual sizes relative to each other. An alternative proposed is an orange peel map projection. Another option presented is a Buckymap projection onto an icosahedron that divides the world into numbered sections for each continent.

Industry (3º ESO)
- 1. Industry I.E.S. Alonso de Covarrubias
- 2. Industry: a secondary activity Secondary activities, like industry, are also called manufacturing industries, because they are a form of employement in which things are made, assembled or produced.
- 3. Inputs Raw materials Energy supplies Transport Labour Capital Government policies
- 4. Processes Processing Assembling Packaging Administration
- 6. Profit (feed back orreinvestment)
- 8. Industrial location factors Physical: Raw materials: The factory needs to be close to these if the are heavy and bulky to transport. Energy supply: This is needed to work the machines in a factory. Early industries were near coalfields. Natural routes: River valleys and flat areas were essential in the days before railways and lorries made the movement of materials easier. Site and land: Most industries require large areas of cheap, flat land on which to build their factories. Well-drained land is also an advantage.
- 9. Industrial location factors Human and economic: Labour: A suitable labour force is essential. Cost and skill levels are important. Capital: All industries require some money to set up and start manufacturing. This may be available from banks, government or local authorities. Markets: An accesible place to sell the goods is needed. This may be in the local area, within the country or abroad as export markets. Transport: A good transport network helps reduces cost and makes the movement of materials easier. Government policies: Industrial development is encouraged in some areas and restricted in others. Subsidies may be available in developing areas. Enviroment: Pleasant surroundings with good leisure facilities help attract and retain the workforce.
