Question

For determination of initial setting time use the following data:

Time              Penetration                         
30 min           40 mm
40 min            34 mm
50 min            20 mm
60 min            15 mm

 

Calculate the amount of water required for normal consistency to the nearest 10 percent and
report it to the nearest 50 percent of the weight of dry cement.
Weight of water required (grams)
Weight of cement sample (650 grams)
N.C =
(100%)
