What cements would be appropriate for foundations in Texas? Why?
Ans : Widely used cement and most appropriate cement which is used in foundation and pavement construction in Texas is Hydraulic Cement which is Portland Cement Type 1 . This cement is used in foundation because of its water resistant ability , it forms a water resistant product . This type of cement gets harden when reacted with water . It also attains strength rapidly but with sufficient amount of curing is also required for this . This type of cement is also used in TxDOT projects in Texas . Also poured slab concrete foundation are widely used in Texas because they provide strength , design flexibility , they fire resistance as well and requires low maintenance .
