Environmental conditions to be maintained as required. 2.0 TEST RECORDS: All records of tests and analysis shall be kept in suitable forms as per Form 1 to Copies of any records or charts that may be required by BIS shall be made available at any time on request. 2.2 For all stages of manufacture, the factory shall maintain appropriate controls and checks to ensure that their product conforms to the various requirements of the specification. 3.0 QUALITY CONTROL: It is recommended that, as far as possible, Statistical Quality Control (SQC) methods may be used for controlling the quality of the product during production as envisaged in this Scheme [See IS 397(Part 1), IS 397(Part 2), IS 397(Part 3) and IS 397(Part 4)]. 3.1 In addition, effort should be made to gradually introduce Quality Management system in accordance with IS/ISO CALIBRATION: Periodic calibration of various testing equipments shall be carried out and records of such calibrations kept. The following equipments shall be calibrated at a frequency shown against each and records kept: TEST EQUIPMENT FREQUENCY OF CALIBRATION (i) Blaine s apparatus Daily with licensee s own Standard cement and weekly with standard cement s supplied by NCCBM. (ii) Compressive strength testing machine. Once in a month with Licensee s own Proving Ring and the Proving Ring shall be Calibrated once in two years from the Accredited independent agency or NPL or Proving Ring manufacturer. (iii) Autoclave Pressure Gauge Once in a month by licensee s own dead weight pressure gauge tester OR once in six months from accredited independent agency or by manufacturer of such gauges. (iv) Vibration Machine Once in a month by licensee s own Tachometer. The tachometer shall be calibrated once in a year from accredited independent agency. (v) Dead wt pressure gauge Tester Once in four years from NABL accredited Lab or (if available) OEM (original Equipment manufacturer) having NPL certified calibrator.

4 Doc: STI/269/6 5.0 STANDARD MARK: The standard mark as given in column 1 of the First Schedule of the license shall be printed or stenciled on each bag or package of Portland cement, provided always that the material in each bag or package to which the mark is thus applied conforms to every requirement of the specification. 5.1 Marking: In addition, the following information shall be given on each bag or package. The information and ISI Mark shall be applied on each bag in BLACK COLOUR. (a) Name of the manufacturer and his registered trade mark, if any. (b) The words 'Ordinary Portland Cement, 33 Grade'. (c) Net Quantity in kg. (d) The words 'Use no Hooks'. (e) Address of Manufacturer. (f) Type and percentage of performance improver(s) added, in case of addition of performance improvers. (g) Batch /Control unit number in terms of the week, month and year of packing. NOTE: (i) For each calendar year the first week shall be counted as 7 days from 1 st of January and subsequent weeks numbered serially accordingly. In such an event, the bags shall be marked as W01. W51.. etc. (ii) In addition to the above, for marking month and year of packing of Cement on bags, the statutory requirements of the Standards of Weights & Measures (Package Commodities) Rules, 1977 shall also apply. (h) The words FOR EXPORT, if required. (j) License Number(CM/L...). 6.0 LEVELS OF CONTROL: The tests, as indicated in Table 1 and at the levels of control specified therein, shall be carried out on the whole production of the factory which is covered by this Scheme and appropriate records and charts maintained in accordance with paragraph 2 above. All the production which conforms to the Indian Standard and covered by this License shall be marked with the Standard Mark. 6.1 Each of the of cement taken for test shall satisfy the requirements of the specification. 6.2 Weighment: 12 filled bags shall be taken at random every hour in each shift of operation and weighed and appropriate records maintained (See Form 1 for record). The bags shall be so chosen for weighment that bags from each nozzle are taken for weighment. Records of such weighment shall be as per Form No.1. 2

In addition, in case clinker is procured from outside, it is to be ensured that each consignment is accompanied with test certificate of clinker manufacturer. The licensee in such cases shall also test and keep records as per Form No REJECTION: A separate record shall be maintained giving information relating to the rejection of lots of Portland cement, if any, which do not conform to the specification and the method of their disposal. Such lots shall in no case be stored together with those conforming to the specification. (See Form 3). 9.0 PACKING: Packing and Net quantity of cement shall conform to clause 9 of the standard. Each consignment of bags/sacks shall be accompanied with a test certificate conforming to relevant Indian Standards either from the manufacturer or from any recognized testing laboratory. Alternately, the s of bags/sacks from each consignment shall be tested by the cement manufacturer either in his own laboratory or any other recognized laboratory before they are used for packing cement. No testing would be necessary if the bags/sacks carry Standard Mark. 9.1 Colour of Bags: Any colour except red can be used. However, the colour of bags shall be in contrast to the colour of marking so that marking on the bags is clear and legible STORAGE: Storage shall conform to clause 7 of the Standard SAMPLES: The licensee shall supply free of charge, the or s required in accordance with Bureau of Indian Standards (Certification Marks) Regulation, from his factory or godowns. BIS shall pay for the s taken by it from the open market REPLACEMENT: Whenever a complaint is received soon after the material with ISI Mark has been purchased and used and if there is adequate evidence that the material has not been misused, defective material shall be replaced by the licensee free of cost in case the complaint is proved to be genuine and the warranty period (where applicable) has not expired. The final authority to judge conformity of the product to the Indian Standard shall be with BIS STOP MARKING: The marking of the product shall be stopped under intimation to BIS if, at any time, there is some difficulty in maintaining the conformity of the product to the specification, or the testing equipment goes out of order, or if directed to do so by BIS for any reason. The marking may be
