The major factors affecting the time of setting are cement composition, water-cementitious material ratio (w/cm), temperature, and admixtures. When cement hydrates faster, the time of setting is reduced. Increases in the w/cm result in increased time of setting. Time of setting decreases as the temperature is increased.

What does "setting time" mean? When cement is mixed with water, the paste that is formed is fluid, or plastic, for a short period of time. During this time the paste material may be reformed or remolded. As the chemical reaction between water and cement continues, the paste becomes stiffer and ultimately hardens.
