::So it's LIMESTONE → sinter in a kiln → CLINKER → grind with gypsum → CEMENT. Whatever the place where all that is done is called, you can then put the cement into a {{w|concrete plant}} to make concrete. This is more of a single large machine, contrary to the more common meaning of the word "plant" as a whole factory. I think the only place you would take cement to be made into something else is a concrete factory/works where you would put it in a concrete plant... anyway I'll leave this open much longer this time :) --[[User:Moogsi|moogsi]] ([[User talk:Moogsi|blah]]) 13:08, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

:::If someone can make a clear distinction, put explanations on the categories that clarify the distinction, and sort the existing images accordingly, fine. But as far as I can tell, the two categories were being used interchangeably. - 01:36, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

:{{support}} merge to Cement works - cement works and cement plants and cement factories as terms all seem to be used for production of cement and production of items from cement (e.g bricks, pre-cast structures, etc). I don't think there is any value in separating these out. Since there isnt' consistency in real-world usage of these terms, we don't need to make an artificial distinction here. --[[User:Obiwankenobi|Obi-Wan Kenobi]] ([[User talk:Obiwankenobi|talk]]) 05:40, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
