Setting Time of Cement Concrete – Stages and Processes
Setting time of cement is same as setting time of concrete. Stages of setting of cement, setting times of cement and factors affecting and initial and final setting time of different cements and various processes involved are discussed. When water is mixed with cement to form a paste, reaction starts.

The compressive strengths of the CSAB cement pastes decreased with increasing w/c regardless of gypsum content, which is a general rule in cementitious materials and concrete [46]. All CSAB cements showed very rapid strength development likely due to the prompt hydration of ye'elimite, inducing the fast formation of ettringite.

What is the purpose of adding gypsum in cement?
Gypsum is a mineral and is hydrated calcium sulfate in chemical form. Gypsum plays a very important role in controlling the rate of hardening of the cement. During the cement manufacturing process, upon the cooling of clinker, a small amount of gypsum is introduced during the final grinding process. Gypsum is added to control the...

Initial Setting Time and Final Setting Time of Concrete
🕑 Reading time: 1 minute The initial setting time of concrete is the time when cement paste starts hardening while the final setting time is the time when cement paste has hardened sufficiently in such a way that a 1 mm needle makes an impression on the paste in the mould but 5 mm needle does not make any impression.
