Bagged Cement at YUGcement Branch
The new packaging line at YUGcement produces three grades of cement, namely PC ІІ/А-S-500, PC II/B-S-400, SR SPC 400.
- Cement PC ІІ/А-S-500
Due to high strength performance and optimally selected setting period, cement has a very wide field of application from paving shaped elements to gas concrete. Moreover, this cement is best for production of high functional concrete as exemplified by its usage in the foundation construction for the wind power plants in southern Ukraine.
- Cement PC II/B-S-400
Cement PC II/B-S-400 has a moderate strength development and a long period of initial setting, which enables its easy and convenient use in the production of concrete (strength class up to B40) and mortar mixes. Its properties allow for easy transportation of the cement based concrete and mortar mixes over long distances and prevention of crack formation in the structures due to temperature stress. This cement has proved very successful for constructing port structures of new grain terminals in Mykolaiv region.
- Sulfate-resistant cement SR SPC 400 with slag to 60%
Nowadays sulfate-resistant cement produced by Dyckerhoff is available on the Ukrainian market in bags. The use of sulfate-resistant cement SR SPC 400 with slag to 60% is suitable for operation in the environment with a high sulfate concentration, namely in the construction of concrete and reinforced concrete structures operated in port and coastal areas, construction of long structures of bridges, tunnels and river harbours, hydraulic engineering installations and in any private construction, which is in contact with the aquatic environment or partially rises above the water.
All these cements and cement based concretes were tested for resistance to aggressive sea water exposure, and positive test results were obtained. Hence, these cements are recommended by the State Research Institute of Building Constructions under the guidance of Professor Sheinich L.O. in the construction of concrete structures, which are in contact with sea water.
All Dyckerhoff cements are certified in UkrSEPRO system (Ukrainian quality system) by the State Enterprise ‘Cement Certification Center ‘SEPROCEM’ in accordance with DSTU B V.2.7-85-99.
