Many people often confuse concrete with cement, but these two materials serve distinct purposes in construction. Cement is a fine powder, made from limestone and clay, that acts as a binder when mixed with water. It is the essential component in making concrete but cannot be used on its own for construction.<br>

Complete Building Solutions: JK Cements

It is necessary to check the quality of cement on site at the time of preliminary inspection. It is not possible to check all the engineering qualities of cement on site but there exist some field test, which gives us an estimate of quality of cement. While on site, you can perform these field tests to judge the quality of cement like that of the JK Cements. These field tests are as follows: â€¢ Date of packing â€¢ Color â€¢ Rubbing â€¢ Hand Insertion â€¢ Float Test â€¢ Smell Test â€¢ Presence of lumps â€¢ Shape Test â€¢ Strength Test FIELD TESTS ON CEMENT DATE OF PACKING Date of manufacture should be seen on the bag. It is important because the strength of cement reduces with age. COLOR The cement should be uniform in color. In general, the color of cement is grey with a light greenish shade. The color of cement gives an indication of excess lime or clay and the degree of burning. RUBBING Take a pinch of cement between fingers and rub it. It should feel smooth while rubbing. If it is rough, that means adulteration with sand. HAND INSERTION Thrust your hand into the cement bag and it should give cool feeling. It indicates that no hydration reaction is taking place in the bag. FLOAT TEST Throw a small quantity of cement in a bucket of water. It should sink and should not float on the surface. SMELL TEST Take a pinch of cement and smell it. If the cement contains too much of pounded clay and silt as an adulterant, the paste will give an earthy smell. PRESENCE OF LUMPS Open the bag and see that lumps should not be present in the bag. It will ensure that no setting has taken place. SHAPE TEST Take 100g of cement and make a stiff paste. Prepare a cake with sharp edges and put on the glass plate. Immerse this plate in water. Observe that the shape shouldnâ€™t get disturbed while settling. It should be able to set and attain strength. Cement is capable of setting under water also and that is why it is also called â€˜Hydraulic Cementâ€™. STRENGTH TEST A block of cement 25 mm*25 mm and 200 mm long is prepared and it is immersed for 7 days in water. It is then placed on supports 15000 mm apart and it is loaded with a weight of 340 N. the block should not show any sign of failure. Authorâ€™s Bio John Long educates his readers on how to check the quality of cement on site at the time of preliminary inspection.

How many grades of cement are there

Cement is available in different grades. The strength of the concrete mix is dependent on the grade of cement. Hence, one must know the grade of cement, and how it can affect the construction of your house. There are mainly three grades of cement produced by the best cement brands in India as follows: 33 Grade Cement 33-grade cement means that the compressive strength of the cement after 28 days is 33N/mm2 when tested as per Indian Standards under standard conditions. This grade of cement is used for general construction work under normal environmental condition. Due to the availability of higher grades in the cement, the use of 33-grade cement has declined.

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The global concrete surface treatment chemicals market is expected to post a CAGR of over 8% during the period 2019-2023, according to the latest market research report byu00a0Technavio. The global concrete #surfacetreatment chemicals market is expected to post a CAGR of over 8% during the period 2019-2023, according to the latest #marketresearch report by @Technavio. Tweet this A key factor driving the growth of the market is the rising demand for concrete curing compounds. At present, concrete curing compounds are preferred in concrete structures because of their properties such as water retention, high reflectance, short drying period, long-term setting, and presence of non-volatile matter. These compounds are used to construct bridges, concrete pavements, runways, dams, and canal linings. For example, moisture curing adhesives are a type of concrete curing compounds. They are chemical compounds that are used to absorb moisture in concrete. These adhesives accounted for the largest share in the global concrete curing compounds market in 2018. Therefore, the rising demand for moisture curing adhesives will drive the demand for concrete curing compounds, which in turn will have a positive impact on the global concrete surface treatment chemicals market during the forecast period. As per Technavio, the growing preference for water-based mold release agents as concrete surface treatment chemical will have a positive impact on the market and contribute to its growth significantly over the forecast period. Thisu00a0global concrete surface treatment chemicals market 2019-2023u00a0research report also analyzes other important trends and market drivers that will affect market growth over 2019-2023. Global Concrete Surface Treatment Chemicals Market: Growing Preference for Water-Based Mold Release Agents as Concrete Surface Treatment Chemical Water-based mold release agents play a vital role in applications related to die casting, concrete, and rubber. They are used in concrete because of their low cost, high efficiency, and low environmental impact. Moreover, concrete-mixing equipment manufacturers have fewer mandates on the use of solvent-based mold release agents. Thus, builders and contractors in the construction industry prefer water-based mold release agents. Some large-scale concrete manufacturers prefer mold release agents that are prepared using a combination of water and solvent in the ratio 80:20. This combination will help reduce the use of solvent-based mold release agents in concrete at construction sites. Thus, the adoption of water-based mold release agents is expected to increase during the forecast period. u201cApart from the growing preference for water-based mold release agents, the increased demand for waterproof sealants from the construction industry is one other factor that is expected to boost market growth.

Improving Properties of Concrete by Adding Pozzolonic Material Such as, Silica Fumes and Ground Glass Blast Furnace Slag

The aim of the study was to evaluate the performance of high performance concrete HPC containing supplementary cementitious materials in both binary and ternary systems. Concretes were prepared to have a slump value between 60 90 mm at a constant water binder ratio of 0.30.Thetest variables included the type and the amount supplementary cementitious materials SCMs such as Silica fume, class F fly ash FA and Ground granulated blast furnace slag GGBS . Portland cement was replaced with fly ash up to 40 , silica fume up to 15 and GGBS up to a level of 70 . The physical properties were assessed from compressive strength and transport properties air permeability and sorptivity , whilst the durability characteristics were investigated in terms of carbonation, chloride migration, chloride diffusion, electrical resistivity and salt scaling resistance. The hydration properties of cement pastes containing SCMs have been investigated in order to understand the behavior of HPC. For Hydration properties, cement pastes were prepared in two series A and B . Mixes of series A had a fixed water binder ratio of 0.30 with super plasticizer, whereas the water binder ratios of series B were equivalent to the standard consistencies. The results confirmed that silica fume performed better than other SCMs for strength development and bulk resistivity. In terms of resistivity of concrete, the best performance was obtained for 15 SF concrete. When 7.5 SF was used in 40 FA and 50 GGBS concrete, the resistivity was less 15 SF concrete. The ternary mixes containing GGBS FA and SF performed best amongst all mixes to resist chloride diffusion. The mix containing fly ash showed favourable permeation results. All ternary combinations can be considered to have resulted in high performance concretes with excellent durable properties. The maximum carbonation depth observed for concrete containing 40 FA and 7.5 SF was about 5 mm, which is less than the cover of reinforced steel bars to cause corrosion. The non steady state 2 migration coefficients of concretes containing different types of SCMs were significantly lower than the controlled concretes. The coefficient was minimum for concrete containing 15 SF. The scaled mass for 40 FA concrete was the maximum among all mixes. For concrete containing was maximum among all the mixes. For concretes containing GGBS, there was no significant change in scaled mass, when compared to control concretes. However, the use of 15 SF was found to reduce the scaled mass. The use of 7.5 SF in 40 FA and 50 GGBS concrete was found to reduce the scaled mass. The x ray diffraction data showed that with the addition of high volume FA, GGBS and SF the peak intensity of Ca OH 2 was retarded and quartz peaks appeared in the paste containing FA denoting a certain amount of crystalline silica in FA. This was more pronounced at later age. The combination of 40 FA and 7.5 SF showed the highest consumption of Ca OH 2. Thermo gravi metry data confirms the addition of SCMs in cement resulted in the formation of decreased amount of Ca OH 2 in the hydration products considerably at later age when compared to early age. Although the addition of high volumes of SCMs decreased the compressive strength of cement pastes at early age, the use of 15 SF improved the strength. However from the cost point of view, it is suggested that a combination of 40 FA and 7.5 SF or 50 GGBS and 7.5 SF can be beneficially used to improve the hydration properties and compressive strength of cement pastes.

The Effect of Cement Dust on Vegetation

This study was undertaken to study the effects of cement dust in vegetation in Azadirachta indica and Mangifera indica . The different amounts of cement dust mixed with soil on the seed germination, plant growth, leaf area. The reason for this was that cement dust generated as a by product from the cement factories is rich in potassium.Cement dust is a potentially phyto toxic pollutant. Large amounts of toxic substances are emitted during its production viz. carbon dioxide, particulate matter dust , oxides of nitrogen and sulfur dioxide. Cement dust also contains heavy metals like nickel, cobalt, lead, chromium and mercury. Its alkaline constituents such as oxides of calcium, potassium and sodium are responsible for the alkalization of ecosystem and soil. It is a common air pollutant affecting tree leaf in various ways i.e. cement dust deposition on leaves plugs stomatal activitiy and interrupts light absorption and gaseous diffusion. The cover formed by deposition of dust particles decrease the pigmentation of plant leaves. The physical and chemical properties of plant tissues can change by such large dust pollution. The behavior of plant body cells depends upon the chemical properties of dust particles. .The cement dust artificially sprayed on the plant surface with different levels. All the morphological and biochemical were analyzed. Morphological parameters Root length, Shoot Length, and dry weight were inhibited in high dose of cement deposition when compare control plant.

An Experimental Study on Shear Strength of Soil Subgrade using Cement as Stabilizing Agent

Construction of any civil engineering structural project whether it is building, bridge, dam or road etc is done on or below the surface of earth. The main purposes of any structure is to transmit the load to the soil beneath, so the soil beneath should be strong enough to bear the upcoming loads without undergoing any failure. Construction of any structure over a weak soil is highly difficult and unsafe as the soil undergoes differential settlements due to high compressibility and poor shear strength. Hence it is most important for us to check the engineering properties of soil before construction.Sub grade is the underlying soil that supports the applied wheel load .If the sub grade of the soil is too weak to support the wheel loads, the pavement will flex excessively which ultimately causes the pavement to fail.The current study deals with the enhancement of shearing strength of soil which is one of the most engineering property of soil using cement as an additive to reduce sub grade failure.Therefore the present study gives an idea for improving the geotechnical engineering properties of the soil used for the pavement sub grade by using the additive which have mixed into the soil to get the desired improvement to fulfill the strength criteria. This criteria can be applied to the roads and air fields having a much stabilized surface layer. This can be achieved by mixing the sandy soil and Ordinary Portland Cement with the water and compacting the mix to get a stronger composite materialTherefore, the present investigation describes the behavioral aspect of soils mixed with 0 , 5 , 10 and 15 cement by volume of soil to improve the load bearing capacity of the soil. Shear strength and index properties such as water content, MDD, OMC, etc. were determine and analyzed for the purpose of enhancement of pavement sub grade.The resultant material becomes hard and durable structural material as cement get hydrated and gained strength by adding 5 , 10 and 15 of the cement by volume with the sandy soil. Compaction test was applied to determine the maximum dry density and the optimum moisture content of the soil by adding 5 ,10 and 15 of cement, in this the dry density first increases at 5 and 10 .The bearing capacity of any soil usually increases with increasing dry density and decreasing moisture content. The shear strength also increases, because increase in cementing content causes increase in shear strength by 13.75 , 19.19 and 9.4 respectively with respect to soil containing 0 of cement. High density assures high shear strength and greater imperviousness .Overall we can say that soil stabilization for pavement sub grade using cement as additive is a good ground improvement technique especially in engineering projects on weak soils. the geotechnical engineering properties of the soil used for the pavement sub grade by using the additive which have mixed into the soil to get the desired improvement to fulfill the strength criteria. This criteria can be applied to the roads and air fields having a much stabilized surface layer. This can be achieved by mixing the sandy soil and Ordinary Portland Cement with the water and compacting the mix to get a stronger composite materialTherefore, the present investigation describes the behavioral aspect of soils mixed with 0 , 5 , 10 and 15 cement by volume of soil to improve the load bearing capacity of the soil. Shear strength and index properties such as water content, MDD, OMC, Liquid limit, specific gravity etc. were determine and analyzed for the purpose of enhancement of pavement sub grade.The resultant material becomes hard and durable structural material as cement get hydrated and gained strength by adding 5 , 10 and 15 of the cement by volume with the sandy soil. Compaction test was applied to determine the maximum dry density and the optimum moisture content of the soil by adding 5 ,10 and 15 of cement, in this the dry density first increases at 5 and 10 .The bearing capacity of any soil usually increases with increasing dry density and decreasing moisture content. The shear strength also increases, because increase in cementing content causes increase in shear strength by 13.75 , 19.19 and 9.4 respectively with respect to soil containing 0 of cement. High density assures high shear strength and greater imperviousness .Overall we can say that soil stabilization for pavement sub grade using cement as additive is a good ground improvement technique especially in engineering projects on weak soils.

Experimental Investigation on Replacement of Cement in Concrete Partially by using Dolamite Powder

Concrete is the most extremely used construction material within the world, which always uses natural resources like lime, aggregates and water. The production of cement in world has increased greatly, due to this cement production emission of CO2 gas has been increased tremendously, ultimately environmental pollution increased to very large extent. This affect to environment has been reduced by cement has been replaced by some supplementary materials like Dolamite Powder or Fly ash or GGBS and so on. Dolamite. Powder was conducted detailed study and lots of research work has been made on other waste materials and it is found there is a great future scope for research on Dolamite Powder as a replacement to cement, sand or both. Now in our case, cement has been replaced partially with in varying proportions likewise from 0 to 20 and its effect has been analysed on the standard consistency, soundness, setting times of cement and compressive strength of cement mortar mixes. The cubes and cylinders of concrete were casted for variable content of dolomite powder. Pramod Dhamne | Dr. P. B.

Improving Properties of Concrete Replacing Cement and Natural Sand with Metakolin and Robo Sand

Concrete is the most extensively used construction material in the world, which consumes natural resources like lime, aggregates and water. The worldwide production of cement has greatly increased, due to this production environmental pollution increases with emission of CO2 gas. To reduce this effect cement was replaced by some supplementary materials like Metakaolin, Fly ash, Bottom Ash, Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag GGBS and Rice Husk etc.. In this content Metakaolin was a pozzolanic material used in wide range in replacement of cement. Metakaolin is dehydroxylated aluminum silicate, due to its pozzolanic activity the strength properties and durability properties of concrete increases and reduction in Porosity and Permeability also. Now a day's availability of natural sand is constraint, so alternative material called ROBO Sand having similar properties as that Natural Sand is used in place of Natural sand to study the fresh and hardened properties of concrete. In this present investigation cement is replaced partially with metakaolin in varying percentage i.e. 0 , 6 , 12 , 18 and 24 and natural sand with 45 ROBO sand to get the different concrete mixes. The fresh and mechanical properties of concrete i.e. workability slump test and compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength at 7 days, 28 days and 56 days are studied of the different concrete mixes and results are compared with conventional concrete.
