Initial setting time: Initial setting time can be defined as the time when the cement paste starts losing its plasticity. As per IS specification, the minimum initial setting time is 30 min for ordinary Portland cement and 60 min for low heat cement.

Following are the test for cement testing services:
1. Fineness (IS: 4031 (Part-2) - 1999
2. Soundness Expansion (mm) by Chatelier (IS:4031 (Part-3) :1988)
3. Autoclave Expansion by Autoclave (IS: 4031 (Part-3) : 1988)
4. Consistency of standard cement paste (IS: 4031 (Part-5) : 1988)
5. Compressive Strength (MPA) (Breaking set of 3) (IS :4031 (Part-6) -1988)
    A. 3 days (72 hours) 
    B. 7 days ( 168 hours)
    C. 28 days ( 672 Hours) 
6. Density (IS : 4031 (Part-11)-1988)

A cement is a binder, a chemical substance used for construction that sets, hardens, and adheres to other materials to bind them together. Cement is seldom used on its own, but rather to bind sand and gravel together.

Soundness of cement can be defined as its ability to retain its volume after it gets hardened. This means that a properly sound cement will undergo minimum volume change after it converts into the hardened state. In the soundness test of cement, we determine the amount of excess lime. 

The Standard Consistency or Normal Consistency of a cement paste is defined as that consistency or percentage of water to be present in the cement paste which will permit a Vicat plunger having 10mm diameter and 50 mm length to penetrate to a depth of 33-35 mm from the top of the mould.
