| GRAY CEMENT TYPES |
 |
| Cement
type CP II
It
is a cement comprised of standard admixtures
for general application, in that there is
no need of very strong early strength. It
is ideal for applications like cement articles,
concrete blocks, concrete in general, textured
concrete, concrete structures, foundations,
underground galleries, paving-stones, interlocking
floors, industrial floors, large pre-casts,
mortars in general and fibercement. Identified
by dark blue color. |
| Cement
type CP III
Blast
furnace portland cement, for jobs of mass
concrete and exposed to the environment
which requires low heat of hydration and
optimum ultimate strength. Recommended for
cement articles, large concrete blocks,
concrete in general, textured concrete,
concrete structures, foundations, used as
reactive aggregates, jobs in sea environments,
underground galleries, paving-stones, interlocking
floors, industrial floors, large pre-casts,
sanitation developments, dams and pavements.
Identified by red color. |
| Cement
type CP IV
Portland
pozzolan cement for mass concrete jobs and
with exposure to the environment which require
low heat of hydration and optimum ultimate
strength. Recommended for cement articles,
large concrete blocks, concrete in general,
textured concrete, concrete structures,
foundations, use with reactive aggregates,
jobs in a sea environment, underground galleries,
large pre-casts, sanitation developments,
dams and pavements. Identified by light
blue color. |
| Cement
type CP V
High
early strength portland cement, specially
suitable for situations that require high
early strength and good workability and
in situations that it is not exposed to
aggressive attacks. For that specific situation,
of exposure to aggressive attacks there
is CPV RS, sulfate resistant.
The CP V cement is suitable for cement
articles, concrete blocks, concrete in general,
textured concrete, pre-cast pegs in location
and prefabricated”, concrete structures,
fibercement, foundations, underground galleries,
paving-stones, interlocking floors, industrial
floors, large pre-casts and concrete roof
tiles. Identified by orange color.
