ABSTRACT:

Despite Bangladesh has glorious history & heritage as a shipbuilding nation since ancient time, shipbuilding has been in focus only from the last couple of years. The optimism about this industry arose from the success attained by a number of local entrepreneurs who brought the name and fame to Bangladesh as a country with great potentials in shipbuilding by building and handing over some ocean-going vessels to overseas buyers. Since then, the shipbuilding in Bangladesh did not have to

    Abul Khair Steel Products Ltd (AKSP) is a newly established large metal finishing plant in Bangladesh, that produces a range of steel products, such as cold rolled (CR) coils, galvanized steel (GS) sheets and corrugated galvanized iron (CGI) sheets. AKSP was established in 1999 as a private limited company and currently employs about 650 staff, with large expatriate technical team, mostly from India. The installed production capacity of the plant is 150,000 tons CGI sheets and 300,000 tons CR coils per year. Actual production for the base year 2002 was 130,943 tons. Due to steep increase in steel prices and competition in the market, demand for their products is low and the company is operating at 50% lower than the installed capacity. As a result, their total production was only 85,000 tons in 2004. The company’s production is mostly for the domestic market but is also exported to 13 countries. AKSP recently obtained ISO 9001: 2000 certification. High electricity consumption is a major concern and for this reason top management decided to participate in the GERIAP project.…

    Due to this historic prosperous background and also a natural geo-graphical advantage, there are presently more than 200 shipbuilding and repairing yards in Bangladesh. Among them, I visited two ship yards, ASSL and WMS, which are the most modern and largest shipyards in Bangladesh. My first impression was that both of them are well organized in terms of production and assembly flow lines, and that the facilities (welding, steel cutting and design office software etc) and their size (up to about 10,000 ton) were better than I had expected.…

    Foreign Trade Statistics (FTS), one of the core publications of Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics (BBS), is being published annually since 1973-74. It is The 23rd issue which contains information about exports and imports of 2008-09. It should be mentionable here that it presents disaggregated data to the possible extent on foreign trade following Harmonised Commodity Description and Coding System (HS code). The data furnished in this report have been collected from National Board of Revenue (NBR). Although BBS used to collect some export and import documents from various customs stations to ensure complete coverage of foreign trade but for the present issue, the only data source is NBR which brings all the data generated in various customs stations under their documentation. This edition has got two parts: Volume-I having five tables with export data and Volume-II containing four tables with import data. I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to the Director General and his fellow colleagues of BBS for bringing out this report. I also appreciate the relentless efforts of the concerned officers and staff of Foreign Trade Section of National Accounting Wing, BBS for collection and compilation of the data provided in this report. Any comments and suggestions from the users and other stakeholders for further improvement of the publication would be highly appreciated.…

    Cement is a binder, a substance that sets and hardens independently, and can bind other materials together. The word "cement" traces to the Romans, who used the term opus caementicium to describe masonry resembling modern concrete that was made from crushed rock with burnt lime as binder. The volcanic ash and pulverized brick additives that were added to the burnt lime to obtain a hydraulic binder were later referred to as cementum, cimentum, cäment, and cement. Cements used in construction can be characterized as being either hydraulic or non-hydraulic. Hydraulic cements (e.g., Portland cement) harden because of hydration, a chemical reaction between the anhydrous cement powder and water. Thus, they can harden underwater or when constantly exposed to wet weather. The chemical reaction results in hydrates that are not very water-soluble and so are quite durable in water. Non-hydraulic cements do not harden underwater; for example, slaked limes harden by reaction with atmospheric carbon dioxide. The most important uses of cement are as an ingredient in the production of mortar in masonry, and of concrete, a combination of cement and an aggregate to form a strong building material..…
