ASTM C219 – Standard Terminology Relating to Hydraulic and Other Inorganic Cements

Scope

ASTM C219 is a comprehensive standard that defines key terms and concepts related to hydraulic and other inorganic cements. This document serves as an invaluable resource for engineers, architects, contractors, and materials scientists involved in the construction industry.

The standard covers a wide range of cement-related terms, including:

  • Types of cement: portland cement, blended cement, masonry cement, and other types.
  • Cement components: clinker, gypsum, and other additives.
  • Cement properties: setting time, compressive strength, soundness, and other characteristics.
  • Cement testing: methods for determining physical and chemical properties.
  • Cement applications: use in concrete, mortar, and other construction materials.

By providing clear and concise definitions, ASTM C219 helps to ensure consistent communication and understanding among professionals working with cement-based materials. This standard is essential for anyone involved in the selection, specification, or testing of cements.
