The consistency test and soundness test of cement are the main tests used to measure the quality of cement before use in construction activity. The…
Specific Gravity is defined as the ratio between the volume of any given material to the volume of the same quantity of water. The value…
The cement reacts with water and turns into a paste to form a layer on other ingredients to make the (concrete) bond stronger. The optimum…
Cement acts as a binding agent in concrete, which blends with other materials quickly and makes the concrete as a strong homogeneous element. The durability…
Every time we calculate the concrete or cement mortar calculation, We use a 1.54 constant to get a dry volume of ingredients. But why exactly…
The strength and durability of the structure depend on the properties of cement. The fineness of the cement test is conducted to find whether the…
The cement is highly consumable material in construction activities. The primary role of cement is to act as a binding agent to bind the ingredients…
Curing is the process of developing concrete strength. During the process of curing of concrete absorbs the necessary water for its complete chemical action to reach its maximum strength.
In an earlier post, we had discussed the cost estimation for different construction activity. Now, we are going to see the rate analysis for plastering.…
