A temperature range which does not cause evaporation of water in cement is good for
curing. Generally, a temperature range of 20 - 35oC is good for curing. For mass structures curing is done at night to reduce the loss of water due to evaporation.
Yes, Gunite is a dry, powdered cement and aggregate mix sprayed onto a pool underlayment structure, typically metal rebar and mesh, under high pressure.Trying to apply or cure gunite near freezing temperatures can affect curing strength and a sub-par installation result may occur.

The Portland cement used to bind the aggregate materials of concrete together is made primarily from cooked limestone, baked at high temperatures in giant tilted rotating drums. The aggregate rock can also be made from limestone.
cement is formed from limestone by combustion of limestone ( heating of the limestone)!
You can lay cement in cold weathers as long as it isn't raining.
Disadvantages of cement are,Cement are subjected to crackingIt is very difficult to provide idoneous curing conditionsNot ideal for situation when settlement is expected.

proper compaction and proper curing of the concrete gives good concrete. for compaction, it lessen the air voids or micro space between the aggregates of the concrete, those voids are very little which is not really visible. for curing, it lessen the heat of hydration of the cement.
Because this cements this cements water absorps maximum.
The curing of concrete is a reaction between the type of cement in the concrete and the water. This reaction between cement and water is known as hydration. When the concrete sets and gains strength through this process it is known as curing. Test cylinders of concrete for construction projects are placed in a curing room where they are continuous misted with water at 23 +-2 degrees Celsius for 7 and 28 days before testing. This provides adequate curing.
Limestone is crushed and baked at high temperatures to produce the main ingredient for Portland cement.
You could add lime putty. But the best solution would be to get a cement that sets in the amount of time you need, a 'slow setting cement'.
Cement fineness: Finer cement particles generally require more water for standard consistency. Cement composition: Different types of cement with varying compositions can exhibit different normal consistencies. Curing temperature Time of testing Humidity Testing procedure Chemical admixtures

Yes, cement is not good for any living organism.
Three varieties of the strength of cement are measured – compressive, tensile, and flexural. Several factors affect the strength, such as water-cement ratio, cement-fine aggregate ratio, curing conditions, size and shape of a specimen, the manner of molding and mixing, loading conditions, and age. I hope it will assist you.
They only do that in the northern hemisphere. They are searching for warmer temperatures and/or better food supplies.
