Limestone powder is a by-product of the limestone quarry, and it has been used in cement-based materials for many years.

The formation of calcium-carboaluminate was influenced by the amount and fineness of LS, but it had little effect …
The benefits of limestone waste as a partial replacement of cement have been well established. In this paper, to better understand the effect of limestone waste on the properties of cement-based materials, the hydration process and microstructural properties of cement are evaluated.

This is mainly attributed to the acceleration effect of limestone, and the dilution effect from significant cement replacement. On contrary, for the set of LC 3-50 using clay of higher calcined kaolinite content (95.0 %), continuous cement hydration is confined due to pore size refinement [12], which is captured by the proposed model. …

1. Introduction. The corrosion of reinforced concretes is one of the major concerns which threatens the durability of concrete structures.

Thus, and since the used gravels are also of limestone nature, the formulated composite is a limestone concrete. So this study constitutes an experimental work that aims at the study of the effect of the addition of limestone fillers on the physico-mechanical behaviour of limestone concrete.
The limestone acts as a seed crystal for the cement, better distributing the reaction products and increasing the reactivity of the cement. As there is always unhydrated cement in the concrete, this change will have no real measurable effect on the use of fly ash. The cement might have a reduced water demand, and the coarser …
