Physical filling effects of limestone powders, which are stated by compactness change of mixtures of limestone powders and cement, play an important role in the pore structure and strength of cement stone. The compactness of mixture of limestone powders and cement has been analyzed by the method of wet packing density, tested the void structure of cement stone by mercury intrusion porosimetry(MIP) and strength of cement stone. Effects of limestone powders with specific areas of individually 416m2/kg, 841m2/kg, 1243m2/kg on compactness of cement, compressive strength of concrete as mineral admixture, and pore structure of cement stone were studied when its cement is substituted for the mass proportion of 5, 10, 15% with it. The results show that the compactness of powder mixtures and compressive strength of concrete are biggest, and the improvement of pore structure of cement stone is the best when limestone powder is 10%; the compactness of powder mixtures and compressive strength of concrete are bigger, and the improvement of pore structure of cement stone is better when limestone powder is finer. That is to say, the proportion of limestone powder is the best substitution at 10%; physical filling effects of limestone powder are better when limestone powder is finer from particle sizes. It is important guiding meaning for the application of limestone powder in cement materials.

Until now, there are few studies on the effect of mineral admixtures on correlation between compressive strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity for concrete. The aim of this work is to study the effect of mineral admixture available in Algeria such as limestone powder, granulated slag and natural pozzolana on the correlation between compressive strength and corresponding ultrasonic pulse velocity for self-compacting concrete (SCC). Compressive strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) were determined for four different SCC (with and without mineral admixture) at the 3, 7, 28 and 90 day curing period. The results of this study showed that it is possible to develop a good correlation relationship between the compressive strength and the corresponding ultrasonic pulse velocity for all SCC studied in this research and all the relationships had exponential form. However, constants were different for each mineral admixture type; where, the best correlation was found in the case of SCC with granulated slag (R2 = 0.85). Unlike the SCC with pozzolana, which have the lowest correlation coefficient (R2 = 0.69).

Mineral admixture was one or more industrial waste, or mixed with finely ground natural minerals, or grinded mixture.By replacing part of the cement with mineral admixtures , cement could be saved and improved the performance of concrete. In this paper，the compressive strength and slump of the concrete with mineral admixture were tested. The amount of cement replaced by mineral admixture in the concrete affected the compressive strength and the slump. According to the compressive strength and slump of the concrete, the optimum dosage of the mineral admixture was from 30% to 40%.

The paper presented here deals with rheological and hardening properties during the setting reaction, and density and compressive strength after the final setting of a figuline composite consisting of Ca2KNa(PO4)2and 2wt% medium gel strength gelatin. Compared to the composite with monomodal particle size distribution (d50=7.18µm; span=3.9) and its properties during and after setting reaction, the goal of this work is to increase the resulting product compressive strength by mixing different particle sizes in order to obtain bi- and trimodal distributions. For the bimodal powder mixtures the ratio in diameter (dcourse/dsmall) was chosen with 7/1 and volume ratio dcourse/dsmallwas 70/30%. For the trimodal powder mixtures the ratio in diameter (dcourse/dmedium/dsmall) was chosen with 70/7/1 and volume ratio dcourse/dmedium/dsmallwas set to 44/28/28%.After establishing an adequate crushing and sieving process the tap density and powder density of each fraction was determined. Subsequently, the different particle sizes were mixed and the densities and the Hausner ratio were determined again. The mixtures show an increase in both densities especially the tap density increased significantly. Rheological investigations show that the graphs of storage and loss moduli of the multimodal powder mixtures respectively are similar. The characteristic setting times show a slight decrease compared with the monomodal composite but not significantly different data. When comparing the resulting compressive strength of cylindrical samples, which were stored direct after reaching the initial setting time under physiological conditions, the studies illustrated in all cases for the multimodal mixtures a significant increase in compressive strength and a higher density.

In this paper, preparation, property study of ultra-strength mortars with mineral admixture and clear river sand was carried out. The mineral admixture include fly ash, ultra-fine GGBS and silica fume. The experimental results show that the compressive strength of mortar improves with increasing amount of silica fume or ultra-fine GGBS. When the content of silica fume or ultra-fine GGBS is 30~35%, the compressive strength and flexural strength of mortar in curing age of 7 days are 100 MPa and 20MPa, respectively. But strength of mortar decreases with the increase replacement rate of fly ash. When the mortar mixes with combined of silica fume and ultra-fine GGBS, the optimum proportion of siliaca fume to ultra-fine GGBS is 2:3. And the compressive strength of mortar in curing age of 7 days is 75~100MPa when the mixed mineral admixture is 40~60%. The compressive strength of mortar is about 90MPa as it mix 60% of cement, 15% of silica fume, 15% of GGBS and 10% of fly ash. Moreover, the ultra strength mortar refines its pore structure and its capiliary pore (≥100nm) amount reduces by 78% compared to ordinary mortar.

Based on the construction characteristics in the Northeast China Region under low temperature conditions, this article studies the influences of admixtures without antifreezing agent of different types and amounts on the low-temperature concrete and characteristics of pore structure. The results show that the amount of the admixtures is stable, the compressive strength of concrete under the curing condition of low temperature naturally varying is higher than the strength under the curing condition of constant low temperature while the porosity of the concrete under the curing condition of low temperature naturally varying is lower than the porosity under the curing condition of constant low temperature; The most appropriate curing method for the concrete used in winter construction is the curing method of low temperature naturally varying.
