Concrete structures reinforced with steel formed an important part of recent infrastructures. Today, the rate of use of cement is higher than 40 years ago. An approximation amount of 11 billion metric ton of cement per year has been consumed in the whole world. The aims of this research are: (1) to obtain the durability value of concrete with PPC Premium Cement and PPC Non-Premium Cement, (2) to obtain the degree of comparison of concrete durability, (3) to obtain the durability parameters. This research based on ASTM International standards, conducts in 224 days non-stop, to obtain following data: (1) compressive strength, (2) rebound number, (3) pulse velocity number, (4) modulus of rupture, and (5) corrosion rate. The test result: (1) PPC Premium cement give a relatively good performance rather than PPC Non-Premium cement. This is based on both destructive and non-destructive test, (2) the modulus of rupture's value also giving the PPC Premium cement act relatively good than PPC Non-Premium cement, (3) test on severe environment, concrete treatment by mean of waterproofing proved to be effective to reduce the rate of steel destruction., (4) on a practical use, cement with high fineness modulus can give a better performance. © 2019 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
