Ultra tech is good.recently we used for gad towers in amaravathi.

 

[Kanhaiya Kumar]

In the normal circumstances I would recommend opc

Opc

PPC

 

[Rajan2586]

OPC is the basic form of cement with 95% cement clinkers and 5% being gypsum. it gains early strength recommended for Structural Concrete or Reinforced Concrete Works (like Columns, Beams, Slab etc.,)

PPC is made up of 75 – 77% cement clinker, 20% fly ash and 3-5% gypsum, it can be use for brick masonry, plastering, tiling and waterproofing works.

 

[YAHIA ABDERRACHID]

Both are good but using PPC is better than using OPC

Opc is best. Because in it we can do use less cement quantity instead of ppc.

It's depends on mix design how you design it both have advantages and disadvantages for example,heat of hydration is more in opc than PpC; inital strength of OPC is more than PPC, economic wise PPC is good with proper mix Design

 

[Amar.Ambati]

Where the early strength is reqired OPC is prefered

Which cement is best for concrete slab construction? OPC or PPC?

OPC because it is fast in setting and has a higher grade(43 and 53) while PPC is slower and has only 33grade

Opc includes 95 % cement clincker and only 5% gypsum.ultimately have good strength.But Ppc comea with only 75-77% clinker and 20% flyash and upto 5% gypsum.So it's environmental friendly and also have good strength.for strength criteria i.e. for Rcc work OPC should be used and for brickwork, plaster and any other work,where strength criteria is not important,PPc must be used .
