Tabuk Portland Cement
Portland cement is the primary material used in the production of concrete and various other construction materials. It is known for its ability to harden and bind when mixed with water, making it an essential component in constructing buildings, bridges, roads, and other structures. This low-alkali product offers exceptional durability and operational efficiency in concrete applications, with guaranteed quality based on sustainable cement technology.
Applications of Portland Cement in Construction:
- General construction: Especially in bridge concrete, walls, canals, floors, pavements, pipes, railway structures, and buildings.
- Precast concrete production: Its high strength allows for rapid mold cycling.
- High early compressive strength: Provides three-day compressive strength equivalent to the seven-day strength of other types of cement.
Portland cement is manufactured from a mixture of raw materials such as limestone and clay, which are heated in special kilns to form clinker. The clinker is then finely ground with gypsum to produce cement. This type of cement is distinguished by its excellent mechanical properties and versatility in construction projects.
