  • C. Ransom stone
  • D. Imperial stone
Correct Answer: Option A - Victoria stone– It is granite pieces with the surface hardened by keeping immersed in soda silicate for about two months. Ransom stone– It is prepared by mixing soda silicate with cement to provide decorative flooring. These are also known as chemical stones. These have compressive strength about 32 N/mm². Imperial stone– It is finely crushed granite is washed carefully and mixed with portland cement. The mix is moulded in desired shape and then steam cured for 24 hr. The cured stocks are immersed in silicate tanks for three days. Bituminous stone– It is granite and diorite are impregnated with prepared or refined for to form bituminous stone. These are used for providing noise, wear and dust resistant stone surfaces.
