Effect of Cement Types on Mechanical Strength, Durability, and Unit Production Cost of Concrete
Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.The primary aim of the present study is to identify the optimal cement type by jointly assessing mechanical performance, durability performance, and cost‐effectiveness using multicriteria decision‐making (MCDM) approaches. This study investigates the effects of four cement types commonly used in Bangladesh—CEM I/OPC, CEM II/A‐M (S‐V‐L), CEM II/B‐M (S‐V‐
