Uses of Rapid Hardening Cement

RHC develops high early strength. This characteristic is very convenient for concrete works. Some uses of rapid hardening cement are given below-

For roads, pavements, and highways construction, RHC is used for early strengthening so roads can be made available for use faster than OPC construction.
In cold weather countries, RHC is used. As RHC has a high heat emission rate and develops high early strength, the damage from frost and freezing can be reduced.
As RHC attains sufficient hardness quickly, formworks can be removed earlier. Therefore, in concrete construction where formwork needs to be removed promptly, RHC is used.
Precast structures like slabs, poles, pillars are produced using RHC for efficient development works.
In a construction site where frequent sulfate attacks happen, RHC can be used. Because RHC is sulfate resistant.
For repair works of building or road, RHC can be used because of its early strengthening characteristic.
