Introduction
The aims and objectives of this chapter are to:
• describe the nature of Portland (calcium silicate-based) cements
• outline the manufacturing process and the quality control procedures employed
• review the cement hydration processes and the development of hydrated structures
• outline the influence of differences in cement chemistry and compound composition on the setting and strength development of concrete
• review cement types (including composite and masonry cements) and the nature of their constituents
• review the standards with which cements must comply and the applications for different cement types
• describe in outline methods used for chemical analysis and to study the hydration of cement
• briefly outline some health and safety aspects related to cement use
