Cement and Concrete Sectional Committee, CED 2

FOREWORD

This Indian Standard was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on 24 November 1989, after the draftfinalized by the Cement and Concrete Sectional Committee had been approved by the Civil Engineering DivisionCouncil.

High alumina cement (HAC) is a special cement containing essentially hydraulic calcium aluminates as themajor ingredient. The presence ofthe mono calcium aluminate (CaO AIz03) constitutent in HAC imparts certainunique properties, such as high early strength and refractoriness.

High alumina cement is mainly a refractory cement but in some cold regions this cement may find use as astructural material taking advantage of high heat of hydration and high early strength development. Thehydration of mono calcium aluminates imparts high early strength and hence this cement will have special utilityin work involving emergency repair or construction. However, conversion of the hydration product of thecalcium aluminates from dicalcium aluminate hydrate to aluminate hydroxide and tricalcium aluminate hydrateand water will result in increased porosity and gradual reduction in strength. This conversion is more rapid inpresence of moisture and at atmosphere temperatures over 18 to 20° C. In tropical climates the loss in strengthcan be as much as 50 to 80 percent.

There has been considerable controversy on the long term effect of storage of high alumina cement concrete inwater at temperatures around 18°C, also the data on retrogression is conflicting. In view of this, the use of thiscement should be restricted to areas of continuously low temperature where highest summer temperatures donot exceed 18°C.

In view of the above and other properties of high alumina cement, there are certain restrictions given belowabout the use of this cement in concrete which sould be strictly followed:

a) In view of the retrogression in strength and reduced durability, high alumina cement shall not be usedin locations where the ambient temperatures are likely to exceed 18°C even for short periods. It shallnot be used in mass concrete in view of the high heat of hydration inducing conversion of the hydratedcompounds;

b) Accelerators like calcium chloride shall not be used with this cement;

c) Steam curing or elevated temperature of curing shall be avoided; and

d) High alumina cement shall not be mixed with any other type of cement.

This standard was first published in 1972. Since publication of this standard large number of amendments havebeen issued from time to time in order to modify various requirements and also other standards referred to inthe specification have been revised. The important amendments include incorporating a clause allowing differenttypes of bags for packing 50 kg cement, permitting packaging of cement in 25 kg bags and incorporating a noteregarding supply of cement in bulk and intermediate containers. As a result of these modifications, the SectionalCommittee decided to bring out the first revision of this standard incorporating all the amendments for theconvenience of the users.

Mass of cement packed in bags and the tolerance requirements for the mass of cement packed in bags shall bein accordance with the relevant provisions of the Standards ofWeights and Measures (Packaged Commodities)Rules. 1977 and B·1.2 (see Annex B for information), Any modification in these rules in respect of toleranceon mass of cement would apply automatically to this standard.

The composition of the committee responsible for the formulation of this standard is given in Annex C.

For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value,observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordancewith IS 2 : 1960 'Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised)'. The number of significant places retainedin the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.

NOTE - The matter given in B·I and B·I.I are extracts based onthe Standards of Weights and Measures (Packaged Commodities)Rules, 1977 to which reference shall be made for full details. Anymodification made in these Rules and other related Acts and Ruleswould apply automatically.

B·l.2 In case of wagon/truck load up to 25 tonnes, theoverall tolerance on net mass of cement shall be 0 to+ 0.5 percent.

NOTE-The mass of a jute sacking bag conforming to IS 2580 :1982 to hold 50 kg of cement is 531 g. the mass of a double hessianbituminized (CRI type) bag to hold 50 kg of cement is 630 g. themass of a 6-ply paper bag to hold 50 kg of cement is approximately400 g and the mass of a polyethyene lined (CRI type) jute bag tohold 50 kg of cement is approximately 480 g.
