This is designed to render high early compressive strength. It is manufactured in accordance with the Thai Industrial Standards Institute's specification for portland cement TIS 15 - 2547 Type 3 and the American ASTM C-150 Type III.
Property : Suitable for the use in concrete work which requires support strength and quick setting as well as for the manufacturing of all prestressed concrete products, e.g. concrete piles, floor slabs, beams, and pylons.
