Type I Cement

Type I cement, also known as Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), is a common type of cement used for general construction purposes. It is primarily composed of a mixture of limestone, clay, and other materials that are heated to form a fine powder. When mixed with water, it hardens and gains strength, making it suitable for a wide range of structures like buildings, bridges, and sidewalks. Type I cement is versatile, delivering reliable setting and strength development, and is often used where specific mixture properties are not critical.
