Masonry Cements with Fines from Aggregate Production

Abstract:

Masonry cement consists of Portland cement, inorganic materials and optional additives. Natural mineral materials are included in inorganic materials. The paper states knowledge gained during research of properties of masonry cements in which fine parts originating in production of aggregate of two types – amphibolite and grandiorite – were used as inorganic content. If the content of fine parts in cement is from 50% to 75%, masonry cement of strength marks 5 and 12.5 can be produced.
