Does Cement Burn? Examining the Heat Resistance of Cement
Does cement burn? Examining the heat resistance of cement. Cement is one of the most fundamental construction materials and forms the basis of various concrete structures. Under normal conditions, cement and its resulting concrete are highly resistant to pressure, but one common question in industrial and building construction is: how heat-resistant is cement? Does cement burn? The short answer is that cement does not burn like wood or metal, but at extremely high temperatures, its physical and chemical properties can change. This can lead to a reduction in the structure’s durability and resistance.
