      1. Inspect the cement visually – Cement should have a uniform color, with no visible lumps or clumps.

      2. Check the consistency – The cement should be of a consistent thickness when mixed with water and should not contain any loose particles.

      3. Test the strength – Cement’s strength is measured by its compressive strength, which should remain consistent over time. This can be tested using specialized equipment.

      4. Verify the setting time – Setting time is the length of time it takes for the cement to harden. It should match up with the manufacturer’s specified setting time range.

      5. Verify the water retention capacity – Good quality cement should have a high water retention capacity and should not cause shrinkage or cracking after being set.

      6. Check for staining – If the cement has been left untouched for too long, it may begin to stain. This is an indication of poor quality cement.
