Glass is an inorganic product of fusion that has cooled to a rigid condition without crystallizing. Glass is typically hard and brittle, and has a conchoidal fracture. A glass may be colorless or colored. It is usually transparent, but may be made translucent or opaque (such as in white, opal glass). Objects made of glass are loosely and popularly referred to as glass; such as glass for a tumbler, a barometer, a window, a magnifier, or a mirror. The subject of studying glass in materials science is an important part.
The ppt is useful for basic information on Cement, glass & refactories.
All above materials are used as Civil engineering materials.
Study group: Polytechnic level, For First Year students.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

Editor's Notes
Which of these two are naturally occurring in nature? Obsidan (from cooling lava), meteorite glass (from cooling meteorite….HEAT is the key to making glass
A: 3500 -4500, in Egypt or Mesopotamia. The first transparent glass was produced in Syria several hundred years later, spread to the Roman Empire and throughout Europe in the first millenium AD. Little is known how glass was first discovered, but it is presumed that its discovery was accidental, likely happening in the process of baking ceramics.
The glass for containers is SODA LIME glass.
Silica sand comprises about 60% of the raw material to make glass. Major deposits in the U.S. are found in N.J., the Allegheney Mts., California, and the Mississippi Valley.
Limestone is added to stabilize the mixture and make the glass impermeable to water, about 20% of the raw material in a virgin batch.
Aka sodium carbonate. It is added to lower the melting temperature for the batch. About 20% of the raw material. On the right is a soda manufacturing facility in Romania. Most of the soda ash in the US comes from Wyoming.
At this point, scroll back to first slide and ask which of the two types of glass were naturally produced in nature…What do they have in common that allowed for this to happen? A: Created in conditions of great heat.

To the left, 19 th century glass factory. Note the black smoke rising from the European factory on the right. The design for the two is strikingly similar.
Over 50 billion bottles and jars are produced each year! For every ton of glass recycled, 315 kg of CO2 is prevented from reaching the atmosphere. Recycling a glass bottle save enough energy to light a 100 watt light bulb for 4 hours. Glass never wears out, it can be recycled forever. If all the bottles and jars collected in the US every year for recycling were laid end to end, they’d stretch to moon and back!
1 oz. of ceramic can contaminate 1 ton of glass, which then has to go to landfill.
