Cement is the most widely used construction material in the United States. The industry's main product, portland cement, makes up 97% of the total domestic production. The remainder comes from masonry, hydraulic, and aluminous cements. In 1992, U.S. demand for cement increased by approximately 3%. Domestic production of portland cement increased by 5%. Cement imported for consumption declined for the fifth year to 6.8 million short tons. Portland cement prices stayed approximately the same.
