EnduraMax Cement 42.5 N (CEM II A-L 42.5 N)

CEM II/A-L 42.5 N is a Limestone Portland Cement (CPC), certified according to the requirements and standards in force.

Use of product

  • Foundation, underground, and sanitation works.
  • Civil engineering (structures and roads).
  • Reinforced and non-reinforced, precast or prestressed concrete, steam-cured and self-curing
  • Construction works (residential, commercial, and industrial buildings).
  • Cement-derived products.

Specific and general recommendations

  • For work in the rain, hot weather, high winds, or freezing conditions, use standardized and appropriate admixtures.
  • Pouring should be regular and continuous in thin layers.
  • The concrete drop height should not exceed 1 meter to avoid segregation. Beyond this height, it is essential to plan for the use of a chute at a suitable height, or a feeding chimney
  • Adjust the vibration of the concrete to its consistency to achieve optimal compaction without segregation.
  • Ensure adherence to setting times during the delivery of fresh concrete.
