Hi! All,
I have a question regarding P.C.E.
I've heard of C.E. - Carbon Equivalence and use it all the time. But what is P.C.E and what does it signify??
Any help?

The pyrometric cone is described by Dodd and Murfin (1994) as 'A pyramid with a triangular base and of a defined shape and size; the "cone" is shaped from a carefully proportioned and uniformly mixed batch of ceramic materials so that when it is heated under stated conditions, it will bend due to softening, the tip of the cone becoming level with the base of a definitive temperature. Pyrometric cones are made in series, the temperature interval between the successive cones usually being 20 degrees Celsius. The best known series are Seger Cones (Germany), Orton Cones (USA) and Staffordshire Cones (UK)'.
