Chapter 5

[Date of Submission: 2082/09/22]

1. Explain about the compounds of cement clinkers and their function in cement. Why is Pozzolana
used to make (PPC) Portland Pozzolana Cement?
2. Draw a flow chart for the manufacture of cement by wet process. Describe the procedure for
performing consistency test of cement in lab.
3. Describe briefly the manufacturing of cement by Wet process with its flow diagram. In what
conditions it is considered a better process than the dry process?
4. Define Bogue’s compound. What is meant by initial setting time and final setting time of
cement?
5. Briefly illustrate the procedure to determine the compressive strength of cement in laboratory.
Why hydration of cement takes place?
6. Write down the main constituents of cement. Draw the flow chart of manufacturing of cement
by dry process.
7. Explain any three types of cement.
8. Define the terms cement clinkers and cement water proofer. Explain constituents of OPC with
correct proportion and benefits in a sound cement.
9. Sketch out the graph related to the contribution of clinker compound to strength with respect to
time of cement compound. Define Admixtures and Cement Water Proofers. [ CEM by Rajput-Pg.
93 for 1st question]
