El Mohandes cement is a very special formula of Ordinary Portland cement that gives relatively delayed initial setting time, early compressive strength for concretes, and moderate heat of hydration for concrete and mortar
Generally, El Mohandes is recommended for mixing concrete in hot weather and suitable to be used in ready mix concrete plants, factory precast concrete elements, and prefabricated concrete units.
Uses and applications:
It can be used in all types of constructions, which need high early compressive strength, such as bridges, tunnels, prefabricated floor, and precast concrete...
Advantages:
1. It gives relatively high early compressive strength after7 days.
2. It gives high final compressive strength (28 days).
3. It gives a relatively delayed setting time and reduces the ratio of concrete normal and super plasticisers admixtures (this admixture is used to delay initial setting time of concrete and give more workability).
Shelf time:
3 months, from the production date.
It is recommended to retest the cement after 6 weeks.
Safety recommendations:
It is recommended to follow the coming instructions:
Avoid the contact of the cement with the eyes and the skin since it may cause allergic reaction.
Use gloves and glasses to protect hands and eyes in case of spry applications, or manual mixings.
Packing:
Bags: 50 Kg/bag
Jumbo plastic bags:500 Kg/bag1000 Kg/bag1500 Kg/bag
It is also available in bulk
Storage:
It is recommended to follow the coming instructions:
Storage should be done in a dry place and away from ground moisture.
It is preferable to store it on wooden bases.
Cement should be covered to avoid the rain.
It is recommended not to pile up any more than ten bags, some on others.
How to clean the cement remains of the used tools:
Before setting: by using clean water.
After setting: by using mechanical methods.
