Important Points about Cement and its Specification

Cement contains some material such as sand or clay (silicon), bauxite (aluminum), and iron ore, and may contain crust, gypsum, marl, shale, clay, blast furnace slag, or slate.
Cement is a kind of dry powdered material obtained by calcination of lime and clay. This type of material is mixed with water to form a mortar to adhere to other building materials. Cement is also mixed with sand, gravel and water and used in concrete structures. High-quality cement, after hardening, provides sufficient strength to erect large industrial structures.
Cement is corrosive to metals and therefore any metal that comes in contact with cement must be corrosion resistant.
