The effect of three fillers (ground limestone, dolomite and basalt) on the strength of cement mortars was studied on 1:2.75 mixes having a w/c ratio of 0.70. The filler content ranged from i0 to 40% of the cement weight and their fineness (specific surface) from 1,150 to 11,200 sq.cm per g. Results

The effect of polyacrylamide (PAA) addition in the ordinary cement and mortar, on the properties, such as setting time, heat of hydration, compressive and tensile strength has been studied by adding 0.5-5.0% additive by weight of cement. While hardness was determined using the Vickers indentation me
The results of a study on the influence of temperature on the compressive strength of mortars and concrete are described. Identical specimens were exposed to temperatures of 25ยฐC, 35ยฐC or 50ยฐC for sustained periods of up to 300 days. Besides ordinary Portland cement (OPC), blends of OPC with powdere
Curing techniques and curing duration have crucial effects on the strength and other mechanical properties of mortars. Proper curing can protect against moisture loss from fresh mixes. The objective of this experimental work is to examine the compressive strength of ordinary Portland cement mortars
