Changes in the regulatory documentation for cements

A number of issues related to the termination of GOST 10178-85 "Portland cement and Portland slag cement. Technical Conditions" are being discussed. Some of the requirements contained in it are not reflected in the standards, which are introduced again or continue to be in force in 2022; there are also shortcomings in the issues of continuity of GOSTs. As a result, many cement manufacturers carry out certification procedures of the same cement for compliance with several standards. It is necessary to optimize the regulatory framework related to cements.
