Rapid Cement

Rapid Cement

Composition

  • Portland clinker in the amount of 95-100%
  • Secondary ingredients in the amount of 0-5%
  • Setting time regulator - calcium sulfate

Characteristics

  • Specific gravity 3.10 kg/dm3
  • Volume of 100 kg of cement is 32.3 dm3
  • Bulk density 1.42 t/m3
  • Rapid strength gain
  • High heat of hydration
  • High early and final strength

Application

  • High-strength concrete - HSC
  • Self-compacting concrete - SCC
  • Ordinary concrete, commercial according to EN 206-1 class C16/20 and higher
  • Concrete for vibro-pressed prefabricates e.g. concrete paving blocks
  • Concrete for monolithic structures and elements
  • Cementitious and cement-lime building mortars: 'masonry and plastering'

Meets requirements

  • PN-EN 197-1 standards 'Cement - Part 1: Composition, requirements, and conformity criteria for common cements'
  • PN-EN 197-2 standards 'Cement - Part 2: Assessment and verification of constancy of performance'
