Lec 2 Flashcards
Pozzolana
The volcanic tuff : finely crushed burnt brick has the same effect
The pantheon dome
Hydraulic limes history
14th century: high-quality mortar
18th : the nature of cementing materials
1756 : the best limestone for use in mortar with high proportion of clayey material is found
Portland cement development
1796 : patent on hydraulic cement (james parker)
1824 : patent on Portland cement (joseph aspdin)
1900 : basic s were standardized
Limestone (from Portland) + …….. —— …. Released —— ….
Finely divided clay, CO2, cement
Cement material
Limestone + clay + gypsum
Process of cement making
Raw material mining -> raw material grinding -> clinker burner -> cement grinding

Gambar clinker
Fineness (m^2/kg)
The last step of cement (grinding of clinker and gypsum). It has wffect on the later hydration process.
The higher the fineness
The higher the hydration
The lower amount of bleeding (water required for better)
The lower concrete durability
The higher rate of heat evolution
The higher amount of gypsum for proper set control
Normal Portland cement size
Finely-ground cements size
45 niu meter (no 325 sieve) average: 15 niu meter
Less than 10 niu meter, 50% less than 5 niu meter
