Strength of Cement

for cements 32.5, 42.5 And 52.5 There are 3 standard strength classes. These values ​​are related to expressing the 28-day compressive strength of cement in MPa. Some factors affecting the strength of cement are:

• The finer and finer the cements are, the higher their strength.
• The strength of cement increases in a parabolic way with time.
• The type of cement affects its strength.
• Properties such as temperature and relative humidity affect the strength of cement.

Storage of Cement in Turkey

While storing the cement, it is necessary to pay attention to some points so that it does not solidify and does not lose its properties such as binding:

• Cements should be stored in closed environments.
• Since there is a risk of the cement reacting with water, it should be kept away from humid environments.
• Bags should not come into direct contact with the ground. Therefore, it should be stored at least 50 cm above the ground.
• Bags should be placed on top of each other at most 10 pieces. Otherwise, hardening can be seen in the bags at the bottom with the effect of pressure.
• The windows and windows of the warehouse should be kept closed unless necessary.
• If the bags are to be stored for a long time in the warehouse, they should be covered with nylon.
• Different types of cement should be stored in different places so that they are not mixed with each other.
• Since cements lose their strength over time, they should not be kept in storage for more than 3 months without being used. Therefore, the oldest cement in the warehouse should be used, not the newest.
• Care should be taken not to spill the roof of the tank.
• Care should be taken that there are no cracks in the floor and walls of the warehouse.
