The initial setting time of ordinary Portland cement must not be less than about

  • A.10 hours
  • B.24 hours
  • C.30 minutes
  • D.5 minutes

Answer: C

Correct answer: 30 minutes

The initial setting time is specified as a minimum, not a maximum, and it must be at least about 30 minutes so that there is time to mix, transport, place and compact the concrete before it stiffens. The final setting time is specified as a maximum, usually 600 minutes, so that the work can proceed.
