Comments:
In this experiment we can calculate the fines of different cement companies which is important
for construction on large scale. the cement should not be finer than the value which cause any shrinkage
and crack in concrete due to the absorption of any moisture. the best way cement quality is good it is
used for large construction and the cement whose is not to astm standard it is used for low structures.
