Mock Test: SSC JE Civil Engineering (CE)- 6 - Question 167

Find the wrong statement.

In Le Chatelier's apparatus we

A.
estimate expansion potential of cement.
B.
estimate presence of unburnt lime in cement
C.
estimate presence of magnesia in cement.
D.
adopt 0.78 times the standard consistency of water.

Detailed Solution for Mock Test: SSC JE Civil Engineering (CE)- 6 - Question 167

In Cement Mortar and Cement Concrete, the volume expands due to the unburnt lime (CaO) and Magnesia (MgO).

Le Chatelier Apparatus test is used to determine the presence of unburnt lime (CaO).

The cracks developed in the structure are mostly due to the unburnt lime because it increases the volume of the cement.

Lime and magnesia also react with water, and thus increase in volume occurs in the cement,

which is also a reason for cracks in the structures.

Hence, the correct option is (c).
