Advances in Civil Engineering, 2021 The effectiveness of mine backfilling depends on the properties of its constituents. The high cost of cement, which is commonly used as a binder in mine backfill, has led researchers to seek alternatives to partially replace it with other binders.

Corrosion Behavior of Steel Reinforcement in Concrete with Recycled Aggregates, Fly Ash and Spent Cracking Catalyst [PDF]
, 2014 The main strategy to reduce the environmental impact of the concrete industry is to reuse the waste materials. This research has considered the combination of cement replacement by industrial by-products, and natural coarse aggregate substitution by ...

Heats of hydration and pozzolan content of portland-pozzolan cements
Journal of Research of the National Bureau of Standards, 1952 Methods are described for the measurement of the approximate heat of solution in acid of portland-cement^-pozzolan mixtures. Examples are given of the estimation of the heat of hydration of portland-pozz olan cements. Determinations of the amount of material undissolved in the calorimeter, as well as the heats of solution, were applied to the problem ...

Effects of the secondary minerals of the natural pozzolans on their pozzolanic activity
Cement and Concrete Research, 2008 Abstract Natural pozzolans have been widely used as substitutes for Portland cement, because of their binding properties. Some of them are natural volcanic rocks which contain secondary minerals such as clays and zeolites corresponding to products of the alteration of the rock.

Use of gypsum and bagasse ash for stabilization of low plastic and high plastic clay
Journal of Applied Research on Industrial Engineering, 2019 Clays have a tendency to undergo volumetric changes when they interact with water. These soils are a very common reason for most of the foundation failures due to their degraded properties.
