Storage of cement bags on construction site -

Cement should be stored in suitably constructed sheds which can be a cool-dry and well-ventilated place. The material should be placed away from the moisture and direct contact from the sun.

Arrangement of Cement Bags

While placing the bags, please ensure the room or shed interior is completely dried.

Avoid penetration of moisture by placing the cement bags above the ground level of 15-20 cms using wooden planks.

A minimum space of 40 cms should be kept between the cement bags and the wall.

The maximum height of the stack should not be more than 15 bags, and the width is up to 4 bags.
If the stack is more than 8 bags high, then the cement bags shall be arranged alternately length and crosswise i.e. header and stretcher method.

Cement bags should be kept close to each other in the stack to reduce air circulation between them.
