In cement-based materials, the LS powder mainly affect the matrix's properties by filler, nucleation, dilution and chemical effects [6]. In slag-concrete, the addition of LS can improve the early-strength and workability of the mixtures, which could make 60% reduction in CO2 emission by combined using LS and slag [7].

This article investigates the effects of water–cement (w–c) ratio and coarse limestone aggregate type on compressive strength of concrete. In this study, Ceyhan (Adana) limestone produced in quarries was used as aggregate material, and its physical, chemical and mechanical properties were determined. The rock was classified due to …
This paper details the main factors influencing the performance of limestone calcined clay cements (LC3). The kaolinite content plays a major role in the rheological …
The authors would like to emphasize that the high autogenous shrinkage of paste and concrete at later ages was a combined effect of limestone present in cement and alumna rich GGBFS. This research is the first of its kind to focus on long term autogenous shrinkage of cement-slag-limestone concrete.

The use of limestone powder (LSP) as a cement replacement is used in abundant applications due to its low cost and wide availability. Adversely, the use of LSP as a part of the precursors of alkali-activated materials (AAMs) is still in the developing stage. This scarcity of studies opened the door and encouraged the researchers for more …
Also, mixtures containing cement and limestone powder with high fineness significantly influenced on the hydration. 2. The setting times decreased with increasing limestone powder content due to the enhanced hydration of C 3 S and C 3 A during early hydration stages. Also, large surface area of cement and limestone powder decrease …
In cement manufacturing, a lot of CO 2 emitted into the atmosphere creates a global warming problem. To solve this problem partly, calcined clay-limestone cement concrete can be used. The impact of high temperature on calcinated clay-limestone cement concrete (LC 3) is studied in this paper.LC 3 is innovative ternary mixed …
During the hydration process, the net reaction heat of limestone waste in the cement blends ranged from 0.38 J/g to 4.1 J/g. In addition, the thermodynamic modeling and XRD indicated that the monocarbonate and hemicarbonate were stable in the limestone-cement blends, and the limestone waste increased the stability of ettringite.
Although concrete is a noncombustible material, high temperatures such as those experienced during a fire have a negative effect on the mechanical properties. This paper studies the effect of elevated temperatures on the mechanical properties of limestone, quartzite and granite concrete. Samples from three different concrete …
The good relationship between permeability and critical pore width was found by many researchers [56], [57], [58], the small critical pore width result in a good resistance of permeability, the dcr of CL5 cement paste is almost equal to CSA cement at later ages, therefore, the cement with 5 wt% limestone powder have a positive effect …
This article reviews the rapidly developing state-of-the-art literature available on the subject of the recently developed limestone calcined clay cement (LC 3).An introduction to the background leading to the development of LC 3 is first discussed. The chemistry of LC 3 hydration and its production are detailed. The influence of the …
Calcium sulfoaluminate cement (CSA) has the characteristics of high early strength, fast setting time, low free expansion rate, good frost and corrosion resistance and excellent impermeability [1,2,3,4,5].Thus, it is widely used in emergency repair projects and winter construction projects [6, 7].CSA plays a role in complex construction …
The water contents in cement-limestone pastes are fixed at 200 kg/m 3 including the water in superplasticizer, which means the total volume of powder occupies 0.8 m 3 /m 3 of paste. The volume substitution ratio of cement by limestone powder changes from 0 to 100 vol%, with an increment frequency of 20 vol%.
To enhance the application of coal series kaolinite clay in the cement industry, the properties and hydration of ternary system based on calcined coal series metakaolin (CMK), limestone (LS), and Portland cement were investigated in this work.
