Read More2014-9-1 Cement. Cement is the most importantly used material for all kinds of constructions and it has been produced in the whole world. The annual global cement production has reached to 2.8 billion tons and it is expected to increase more than 4 billion tons/year due to the major growth in different countries, such as China, India, Middle East and Northern Africa [20,21].
Read More2019-7-18 Posted on July 18, 2019. Concrete is a mixture of cement, gravel, sand, water and a range of aggregates. With about 10 billion tons of concrete produced every year, it is the most consumed substance in the world, second only to water.. It is also the world’s most widely used material for construction – from bridges to large buildings, concrete forms the very foundation
Read More2018-4-4 We first discuss cement production and special nomenclature used by cement industrialists in expressing the composition of their cement products. We reveal different types of cement products, their compositions, properties, and typical uses. Wherever possible, we tend to give reasons as to why a particular cement type is more suitable for a given purpose than
