Types of Cements

1.Rapid Hardening Cement:-

-Increased Lime content.

-Attains high strength during the early days

it can be found in concrete where form work are removed with an early on.

2.Quick setting cement:

-Portion of aluminium sulphate as a possible accelerator and reducing number of Gypsum with fine grinding.

-Utilized in works is usually to be finished in very little while and concreting in static and running water.

3.Low Heat Cement:

-Created by reducing tri-calcium aluminate.

-It's used in massive concrete construction like gravity dams.

4.Sulphates resisting Cement:

-It can be made by maintaining the percentage of tricalcium aluminate below 6% which increases power against sulphates.

-It really is utilized in construction exposed to severe sulphate action by water and soil in places like canals linings, culverts, retaining walls, siphons etc.,

5.Blast Furnace Slag Cement:

-It's obtained by grinding the clinkers with approximately 60% slag and resembles about in properties of Portland cement.

-It might useful for works economic considerations is predominant.
