You can choose Ordinary Portland Cement or blended cement like Portland Slag cement for construction
    Blended cement gives better long term strength, gain and durability
    Concrete made with blended cement has shown better resistance to various attacks from sulphate, chloride, etc.
    You can assess the quality of cement by its grade; this tells you what the strength of the cement will be after 28 days of application
    Grey cement is mostly used for construction whereas white cement is used for interiors

Ordinary Portland cement is the most commonly used cement for a wide range of applications. These applications cover ordinary, standard, high strength concretes, masonry and plastering works, precast concrete products for e.g., blocks, pipes etc., and specialized works such as precast and prestressed concrete.

Portland Pozzolana cement is ordinary Portland cement intimately blended or interground with pozzolanic materials such as fly ash, calcined clay, rice husk ash etc.

Portland cement clinker is either interground or intimately blended with specified quantities of gypsum and pozzolanic materials to produce Portland Pozzolana cement. Pozzolanas by themselves do not have cementitious properties but reacts with calcium hydroxide in the presence of moisture at normal temperature to form compounds having cementitious properties. The concrete produced by using Portland Pozzolana cement has high ultimate strength, is more durable, resists wet cracking, thermal cracking and has a high degree of cohesion and workability in concrete and mortar.
