Q: The fineness of a cement sample is determined by using ______ method.
  • A. Blane's air permeability
  • B. slump cone
  • C. universal testing
  • D. Le Chatelier
Correct Answer: Option A - The degree of fineness of cement is the measure the mean size of the grains in it. There are three methods for testing fineness– 1. Sieve method 2. Air permeability method– (a) Nurse method (b) Blain's method 3. Sedimentation method– (a) Wagner turbidimeter method Soundness test– Le-Chatelier/Auto clave test Consistency test– Vicat apparatus Strength– Compressive strength test
