In most construction projects godowns are constructed at site for storage of a few days requirement of cement. Even though such godowns are temporary in nature, they must conform to the following requirement. The walls must be plastered and made damp proof The roof must be given an appropriate water proofing treatment The floor must be raised by at least 80 cm above the ground level to prevent any inflow of water. The flooring may consist of a 15 cm thick layer of dry bricks laid in two courses over a layer of earth consolidated to a thickness of 15cm above the ground level. For further protection, cement bags should be stacked at least 10-20 cm clear above the floor by providing wooden battens and planking arrangement. For saving timber concrete may be used. If any windows are provided, these should be few and small and normally kept tightly closed to prevent entry of atmospheric moisture from outside. A newly constructed godown should not be used for storage of cement unless its interior is thoroughly dry.
