Hydraulicity of cement is its ability to harden when mixed with water, influenced by temperature, moisture, and curing conditions, which can also impact concrete's workability, shrinkage, cracking, and durability. Sulphate resisting cement is a type of cement with lower tricalcium aluminate and tetracalcium aluminoferrite content but higher tricalcium silicate than ordinary Portland cement, making it more resistant to sulfate attack.

Hydraulicity of cement is the ability of cement to harden and set
in contact with water.
The hydraulicity of cement is influenced by the temperature,
moisture, and curing conditions of the concrete. The hydraulicity of cement can also affect the workability, shrinkage, cracking, and durability of concrete.
What is Sulphate resisting cement:
Sulphate resisting cement is a type of cement that has low tricalcium aluminate (C3A) and tetracalcium aluminoferrite (C4AF) content, and high tricalcium silicate (C3S) content than the normal chemical composition of ordinary Portland cement (OPC).
