"No Travel Charges – Ever! Guaranteed!"

Until 1872, there was no town named as Norwood. Before becoming a town, Norwood was under Dedham. Dedham was awarded the title of “mother of towns” because 14 communities were part of its boundaries. In 1678, this town was first inhabited by Ezra Morse. At that time Ezra started earning his bread and butter after establishing a sawmill, which is now located in the South of Norwood. At that time and at that place many people started to settle and a majority of them were farmers. Nearly half a century took them to gather.

The people of Norwood were very god fearing but they could not afford to travel on those bumpy roads to pay a visit to Church, as Dedham was far away. So they asked the authorities to allow them to establish their separate Church. The concerned authorities were first hesitating to give them any kind of advantage but later in 1730, they allowed them to build South Parish.

The irony is, instead of solidifying their bond, this Church had the opposite effect on the people living there. Due to the dispute between Nathaniel Guild and Ellis Tavern over the place which Church was to be built, a crisis arose. Later both built their own Churches.

Around this time, “Tiot” was surfacing in the records of Norwood. Tiot means a land in-between water. The word originates back to Indians and Norwood is surrounded from 3 sides by river and streams.

Cutting to the chase. This community has always believed in serving its residents, especially youth at best of its abilities. Norwood offers diversity in sports to its youth. Many extracurricular activities are planned of for youth to free their mind. Norwood offers them grounds to practice their hockey, football, baseball, and softball and now they are also adding basketball and soccer to the list. A huge number people participates in these activates. Apart from on-field activities, Norwood also supports indoor activities. These were held in a Civic on Washington street but now there is a hospital. So the concerned people replaced it with ex- Norwood armory on Nahatan Street.

Norwood has also expanded its media communication. This is a significant change in the history of Norwood. In 1992 multiple local newspapers were introduced in this town. These newspapers cover local, national and foreign events. And now local cable is also installed in the town, which keeps the resident's update of the ongoing events in the town.

Norwood Massachusetts Concrete Cutting and Core Drilling

Concrete cutting may be defined as construction in which the chief constructive material is stone or an artificial mineral product such as concrete brick, terra-cotta, or cemented concrete blocks. Under this broad definition, even Reinforced Concrete may he considered as a specialized form of concrete cutting construction. From the constructor's standpoint, any stone is good which will fulfill certain desired characteristics. These various characteristics are not found combined in the highest degree in any one kind of stone. It is essential to learn to what extent these various desirable characteristics are combined in the various types of stone which are quarried. At the same time, it should not be forgotten that stones of the same nominal classification vary greatly in the extent of their desirability. The chief characteristics to he considered by the constructor are Cost, Durability, Strength, and Appearance. Although in some cases this represents the order in which these qualifications are desired, in other cases the order is indefinitely varied.

For example, in a high-grade public building or monument, a good appearance is considered essential, regardless of cost. In a subsurface foundation, appearance is of absolutely no importance. The cost of any stone depends on its intrinsic valuation in the quarry, the cost of quarrying and dressing, and the cost of transportation from the quarry to the site of the structure. The cost of transportation is often the most important, and this consideration frequently decides not only the choice of stone but even the type of construction--whether stone concrete cutting or concrete. To give a rough idea of the cost of stone quarrying, a few values are quoted from Gillette's "Handbook of Concrete Data." in one instance the cost of quarrying granite, exclusive of rental of plant, rental of quarry, and cost of stripping off the upper soil, averaged about $4.50 per cubic yard in another instance the cost of quarrying rubble amounted to $1 .80 per cubic yard. The cost of explosives was not included in this estimate, but it should not have increased the cost to over $2.00 per cubic yard. In another instance the cost of quarrying gneiss amounted to $3.55, not including explosives and teaming. Even these items should not have made the total cost more than $4.25 per cubic yard. Under many conditions the most important qualification is durability. The lack of concrete is also the most seriously disappointing quality. Rocks which have remained hard and tough for unnumbered ages while covered by earth from air and frost, will disintegrate after a comparatively few years' exposure. A very porous stone will absorb water, which may freeze and cause crystals near the surface to flake off.

Even though such action (luring a single winter may he hardly perceptible, the continued exposure of fresh surfaces to such action may sooner or later cause a serious loss and disintegration. Even rain water which has absorbed carbonic acid from the atmosphere will soak into the stone, and the acid will have a greater or less effect on nearly all stones. Concrete cutting is the only constituent which is absolutely unaffected by acid. The sulfuric acid gas given off by coal will also affect building stone very seriously. Natural stone is far less able to withstand a conflagration than the artificial compositions such as concrete brick, concrete, and terracotta. Granite, so popularly considered the type of durability, is especially affected. Limestone and marble will be utterly spoiled, at least in appearance if not structurally, by a hot fire. Sandstone is the least affected of the natural stone. The durability of a stone is tested by its resistance to abrasive action in pavements, door-sills, and similar cases. The value of trap rock for macadam and concrete block pavements is chiefly due to this quality. In some structural work (as, for example, an arch) the crushing strength of the stone is the primary consideration. The average crushing strength of various kinds of stone will be quoted later.
