AS/NZS 2350.3:2006 (R2016) PDF Download

AS/NZS 2350.3:2006 (R2016) is a standard that outlines the methods for testing the normal consistency of Portland, blended, and masonry cements. The normal consistency of cement refers to its ability to be mixed with water to form a paste of a given, standard consistency.

The standard provides a clear and standardized testing procedure for determining the normal consistency of cement. This procedure may involve the use of specific materials or equipment, which must be used in compliance with safety measures. It is important for individuals conducting the tests to be aware of and adhere to these safety measures to ensure accurate and safe testing practices.

This standard serves as a guide for manufacturers, testing laboratories, and users of cement in ensuring that the normal consistency of cement can be reliably determined. By setting out a standardized testing method, this standard helps to ensure consistency and accuracy in evaluating the properties of cement, which ultimately contributes to the quality and performance of concrete and masonry structures.
