12 months - 40%.
24 months - 50%.

According to me, the expiridate of cement is 3 months. After a period, 24 month reduces 50 percentage is wrong.

Concrete will gain strength will time if cement is storage deteriorated or not.

So option A is correct.

Akshay Patidar said:   7 years ago
We know that if the cement is stored, their strength will be reduced. If Stored for 6 months reduce strength up to 20%. If stored for 12 months reduce strength up to 40% and if stored 24 months reduce strength up to 50%. That means with time cement losses its strength.

So, Option A is correct.

Thanks @Abhi.

With Passage of time strength of CEMENT decrease.

And with passage of time strength of CONCRETE increases.

Therefore option A is incorrect.
