The report offers an account of archaeological and conservation work carried out at the site. Excavations in the central part of the site (Sector F) were continued for the fourth season in a row. Exploration of remains of early Roman houses led to the discovery of a well preserved multicolored triclinium mosaic floor with a floral and geometric design. A large assemblage of fragments of polychrome marble floor tiles, recorded in the house collapse, showed the scale of importation of decorative stone material from various regions of the Mediterranean. Overlying the early Roman strata was direct evidence of intensive construction work carried out in the vicinity in the form of large-scale kilnworks, supplying lime most probably for the building of the late Roman bath and cistern. Included in the presentation is a brief review of the limited conservation work that was conducted in the complex of late antique auditoria.

Clay Materials

AbstractAn attempt has been made to assess new potential applications for the Bailén clays, traditionally used for manufacturing bricks, based on mineralogical, chemical, particle size, plasticity and firing results. Raw materials and mixtures used by the local factory were selected and tested with the addition of some diatomite, feldspar or kaolin. Based on their properties, clay materials from Bailén might be suitable for making porous red wall tiles, clinker, vitrified red floor tiles and porous light-coloured wall tiles by pressing; the first could be manufactured from the raw materials and mixtures currently used by the local manufactures. On the other hand, stoneware shaped by extrusion, such as perforated bricks, facing bricks and roofing tiles, can be also manufactured from the mixtures used at the factory if they contain 20-25% carbonate and small amounts of iron oxides; lightweight bricks require black and yellow clays with diatomite.

Medieval Pottery

The publication is focused on late medieval pottery products with higher aesthetical effect. The key group is represented by stove tiles, where the unifying elements of relief decoration helped to define series of motifs for stoves with specific iconographic concept, which were found in various locations. The same approach can be also used with small ceramic sculptures, aquamaniles and relief-decorated floor tiles, even though the achieved information value in these cases is much lower. Micropetrographic, XRF and other analyses helped to identify the production centres and the distribution model of these ceramic groups. 3D documentation enabled a detailed comparison of differences between individual reliefs and specific traces of manufacturing procedures. Individual chapters contain active links to the source database of analysed items and to 3D models of selected specimens from reference collections.

Safety Features

Choosing slip-resistant footwear from the whole host of products on the market can be difficult. Sole descriptions are varied, from improving the grip performance to excellent multi-directional slip-resistance. Often, footwear is just described as „slip-resistant‟ and the brochure do not describe the conditions for which the footwear is most suitable. Footwear selection has to take account of several factors in addition to slip resistance, such as comfort, durability and any other safety features required, such as toe protection. Accidents are expensive there are many hidden and uninsured costs. But it may be more comfortable or attractive ensuring that staff wears it and it may last longer. Specify the main surfaces and contaminants which cause slip risks in the workplace, and seek our supplier‟s advice on suitable footwear. Some generally slip-resistant footwear may not be suitable in specific demanding conditions. In this research, footwear are tested in water and oil conditioned floor tiles and the final result is compared with both conditions

Phase And Chemical Composition

During the operation of porcelain stoneware sometimes there is a type of defects associated with crumbling from the edge of tile. In addition, cracks occur when a small object is fallen and during transportation of the products. Compared to conventional ceramic floor tiles, porcelain stoneware has increased strength, which explains its high price. The brittle failure is most likely, due to the hardening of glassy phase of tiles during cooling stage of the firing process. As a rule, the quenching temperature depends on the chemical composition of the glassy phase formed during firing. Both the phase and chemical composition of porcelain stoneware, and the chemical composition of the glassy phase are determined.
