The Rantembe Dam Project involved the construction of thick concrete sections and submerged structures. Concrete used to make such structures must fulfill stringent temperature and durability requirements. These are- control of the temperature rise in concrete which reduces the peak temperature and thermal cracks; prevention against the corrosion of steel bars by controlling the intrusion of chloride ions and prevention against sulphate attacks.
After the consultant’s in-depth study, SsangYong High Slag Portland Blastfurnace Cement, P4246, was concluded to possess good peak temperature reduction, better consistency, setting time and strength development, thus meeting the stringent specifications.
In addition, P4246 was found to be superior in terms of product attributes and quality when compared with other international slag cement suppliers from
Belgium, Germany and Japan, etc. The project was constructed during year 1987 to 1989.
Note: P4246 is a homogeneous blend of Ordinary Portland Cement(OPC) and VCEM.
