Abstract

Increasing study and research on the components of concrete structures has led to the availability of materials, the use of which in turn has been able to have a tremendous impact on concrete production. Concrete is undoubtedly the most important building material, the production and consumption of which is increasing day by day and it is used in almost all structures. The performance of cement as one of the main components of concrete products has always been considered and with the increasing development of Iran's cement industry in terms of quantity in the production of cement, cement quality control by examining physical and chemical properties is very important. In this study, we tried to investigate the factors affecting the strength of hydrated cement used in concrete structures in Shiraz and the results indicate a decrease in concrete strength due to increasing the ratio of water to cement and also C3S and C2S are the two main compounds causing cement strength are hydrated.
