Troubleshooting tips and frequently asked questions for Thyssenkupp Cement.
Troubleshooting tips
If you notice lumps or hardening in your cement bags, check the storage conditions. Ensure bags are kept on a dry, raised platform and away from moisture. If lumps are present, sieve the cement before use to remove them.
For concrete that is setting too quickly, adjust the water-cement ratio. Too much water can weaken the mix, while too little can cause rapid setting. Use a slump test to verify consistency.
If you experience cracking in your concrete structure, ensure proper curing. Keep the surface moist for at least 7 days after pouring. Also, avoid adding extra water to the mix during placement.
When using Thyssenkupp cement for plastering, if the plaster is not adhering well, check the surface preparation. The wall should be clean, free of dust, and slightly damp before applying plaster.
If you suspect the cement quality is compromised, contact Thyssenkupp support at 1800 102 8500 or email contactus.tkil@tkil.com. They can provide guidance and, if necessary, arrange for a quality check.
