Concrete for Durability and Hazard Resistance There are two aspects of durability. One is the ability to stand up to normal wear and tear and last a long time. The other is to resist extreme events like natural (or man-made) disasters. Concrete is a wise choice for construction as it can be first cost-competitive, last a very long time, and ...

Portland-limestone cement (PLC) is relatively new to the US, but has been used internationally for many decades in all aspects of concrete construction. PLC is a blended cement that incorporates between 5% and 15% limestone as an ingredient, which lowers its environmental footprint by about 10%.

Regulated set cement was invented at the Portland Cement Association (USA) in the early 1970s; however, the main development work occurred in Japan, where it is known as Jet cement. The cement is derived from a fluoride-modified Portland cement clinker and contains C 11 A 7 CaF 2 (or C 11 A 7 F ¯) instead of C 3 A. 37 The hydration of mixtures of C 11 A 7 F ¯, C 3 S and CaSO 4 have been ...

consistent with the w/cm required for durability. Supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), like fly ash and slag cement, reduce the permeability relative to mixtures that contain only portland cement. SCMs also make concrete more resistant to chemical factors that impact concrete durability, like sulfate attack and alkali aggregate reaction.
