Suite of procedures to assess the physical, chemical, and performance characteristics of cement, ensuring its compliance with industry standards and suitability for intended applications. These tests provide vital information on various aspects, including:
Fineness
Smaller particle size translates to increased reactivity, hydration rate, and ultimately, strength development.
Consistency
Determines the workability of concrete mix, influencing ease of placement and finishing.
Setting Time
Defines the timeframe within which the cement starts and finishes hardening, aiding in scheduling and avoiding premature or delayed setting.
Strength
Measured at different periods (compressive, tensile, flexural), evaluating the ability of hardened concrete to withstand various stresses.
