Abstract

Paper analyses the properties of cement pastes and mortars prepared with a mixture of Portland cement (PC) and milled limestone (ML) in the amount of 5%, 15%, 30%, 35%, 40% and 50% by weight. For cement pastes, the hydration heat, standard consistency and initial setting time were studied. For cement mortars, the compressive strength was determined. As the share of ML increases, the rate of hydration heat release decreases. Compared to control cement, cement with up to 35% ML shows similar initial setting time, while at the share of 40% and 50% ML the initial setting time is noticeably shortened. Cement containing 5% and 15% ML is in the strength class of 42.5R, while that with 30% and 35% ML is in the strength class of 32.5N. At 40% and 50% ML, cements do not meet the requirements of the PN-EN 197-1:2012 standard with respect to the strength class.

Keywords
