Studies of Cements
SCOPE This study included chemical and physical tests of six Type IP cements, their six Type I counterparts, and the fly ash pozzohms used in the manufacture of the IP cements. The cements were produced by intergrinding, by blending, or by combinations of these two operations, Pastes, mortars, and concretes were evaluated for such properties as strength development, drying shrinkage, and durability. Also, the fly ashes were tested according to ASTM C618.
SYNOPSIS This study augments an earlier one** in which much of the same type of information on the properties of concretes made with early portland-pozzolan cements (ASTM Type lP) was presented. Three Type IP cements and two Type I cements were used in the earlier work. One of the Type I cements was manufactured at the same plant as one of the Type IP cements. The present study included six Type I cements and six Type IP cements made at six different plants. Each Type IP, therefore, can be directly compared with a Type I manufactured at the same plant at about the same time; consequently, the clinker portions of the counterpart cements should be very similar in composition, The data presented include results of chemical and physical tests of the cements according to ASTM C150 and C595 and data on the physical properties of the concretes, including strength development, drying shrinkage, resistance to freezing and thawing, and resistance to deicer scaling. Air-entrained concretes made with the portland-pozzolan cements were somewhat less resistant to deicer scaling than were the air-entrained concretes made with the Type I portland cements, However, resistance to freezing and thawing in water was similar with both types of cement, Drying shrinkage was somewhat less for the Type IP cement concretes. Both types of concrete exhibited similar compressive and flexural strength development, KEYWORDS: air-entrained concretes; blended cements; curing; deicers; fly ash; freezethaw durability; portland-pozzolan cements; pozzohins; scaling; shrinkage; strength.
MATERIALS The cements used in this study included six Type IP cements and their six Type I counterparts manufactured at the same plants at approximately the same time. Fly ash was used as the pozzolanic constituent in each case. Portland Cements (Type I). The results of the chemical and physical tests required by ASTM C150 are shown in Tables 1 and 3. All the Type I cements meet the applicable requirements. Portland-Pozzolan Cements (Type IP), Tables 2 and 3 list results of the chemical and physical tests required by ASTM C595. These cements also meet the applicable requirements. Mortar bars were fabricated from all the cements in this study and cured according to ASTM C595. Drying shrinkages of these bars after various periods of drying in an atmosphere main. tained at 73 deg. F. and 50% R.H. are shown in Table 4. Pozzolans (Fly Ashes). Table 5 lists results of the chemical and physical tests required by ASTM C618, All the fly ashes meet all the requirements. Additionally, expansions due to alkali-aggregate reac-
INTRODUCTION Between the time when the previous study of portland-pozzolan cements was completed and the present one started, interest in this type of cement had declined. However, when cement shortages began to appear in various areas of the country in early 1973, several manufacturers began producing 1P cement as a means of increasing productive capacity, At the time the present study was instigated, during the summer of 1973, approximately a dozen producers were manufacturing
IP cement, The cements were generally well received in the various concrete-using industries, but a consistent body of data comparing the engineering properties of concretes made with 1P cements with those of concretes containing their Type I counterparts was lacking. This study provides such information,

tion were determined according to ASTM C441. These results are listed in Table 6. In each case, the fly ash used was the same as that used in making the corresponding Type P cement for that particular plant. Fine Aggregate. Natural sand from Elgin, Ill., partly carbonates and partly silicates, was used in all the concretes in this study. Coarse Aggregate. Partially crushed gravel from Elgin, Ill., similar in composition to the sand but with a greater percentage of carbonates, was used for the compressive and flexural specimens and for drying-shrinkage prisms. For the durability specimens, highly siliceous, partially crushed river gravel from Eau Claire, Wis., was used because of the higher durability of this aggregate. Air-Entraining Admixture. A laboratory-prepared neutralized Vinsol resin solution was added during mixing to entrain the amounts of air shown in Tables 7andll,

cement per cubic yard. Air contents were maintained at 5-6% and slump was held to 2-3 in. The water-cement ratios were thus allowed to vary to more closely simulate field procedures, More detailed information on these concrete mixtures is given in Table 7. Generally, the Type IP cements required somewhat less mixing water than their Type I counterparts. Airentraining agent requirements were higher in every case for the IP cements than for
their Type I counterparts. Increases ranged from 15 to 210%. Mixing, casting, and curing were done at a temperature of 73 deg. F, Specimens used for evaluation of compressive strength were 6x12-in. cylinders. They were capped with a sulfur-fire clay mixture at least one hour before testing. Beams measuring 6x6x30 in, were used for flexural testing. The beams were loaded at the third points of an 18-in.
span. Two flexural breaks were made on each specimen. Concretes for strength development evaluation were cured as follows: Moist, Continuously moist at 73 deg. F. and tested at ages ranging from 1 day to 1 year. Air. Moist-cured at 73 deg. F. for 7 days, then stored in air at 73 deg. F. and 50% R.H. until tested, The results of compressive strength
these concretes are listed in Table 8, A comparison of the average results for the Type I and Type 1P cement concretes is shown in Fig. 1. The Type IP cement concretes were lower in strength through 28 days, but after 90 days the compressive strengths for the two classes of concrete were nearly identical. The air-cured specimens (7 days moist followed by air storage) did not show significant reductions in 90-day strength development compared to the continuously moist specimens. The data for the individual concretes listed in Table 8 show that some of the IP concretes have a higher strength at 90 days and 1 year than their Type I counterparts, while for others the reverse is true. Flexural strength test results are listed in Table 9. A graph of strength development averages for the Type Is and Type 1Psvs. time is shown in Fig, 2, The graph reflects the lower average strengths of Type IP concretes as compared to those of Type I concretes when moist curing was applied. When the concretes were allowed to dry after 7 days of moist curing, the two types of cement produced almost identical 28-day flexural strengths. The slopes of the lines indicate that the strengths at later ages, like the compres. sive strengths, most likely would be comparable,

Only eight of the 12 cements are represented here. Supplies of the remaining four had been exhausted by the time these specimens were cast. The differences between the Type I and the Type IP cement concretes are minor, as were those in the mortar bar data, and are overshadowed by the effect of length of moist-curing period.

Concretes for durability tests were similar to those made for evaluation of strength development and drying shrinkage, with the exception of the coarse aggregate. The Eau Claire gravel concretes required an average of 12 lb. per cubic yard less water than the Elgin gravel. Table 11 lists detailed information on these concretes,

They were immersed in tap water at all times. The temperature range of the specimens was approximately 10 deg. F. to +55 deg. F. The rate of cooling was approximately 20 deg. F. per hour. Specimens were tested at intervals for changes in length, weight, and fundamental frequency of transverse vibration (sonic modulus).

The slabs underwent one of these cycles daily. The amount of scaling was determined visually at intervals. Numerical ratings were assigned as follows: O = no scale 1 = slight scale 2 = slight to moderate scale 3 = moderate scale 4 = moderate to heavy scale 5 = heavy scale Scale ratings through 300 cycles are given in Table 13 and are depicted graphically in Fig. 3. As is evident in both, the Type 1P concretes exhibited more rapid early scaling than did the Type I concretes, but scaling did not progress from 50 through 300 cycles. Also evident is the fact that length of initial moist-curing period has little effect on the performance of the Type 1P concretes and no effect on the Type I concretes. After this rapid initial scaling became apparent, the slabs were duplicated and given a linseed oil coating at 7 days into the drying period. The results, shown in Table 14, indicate some improvement at 100 cycles but more rapid scaling thereafter. Because laboratory test procedures for deicer scaling are much more revere than any field exposure, differences observed in the laboratory may not be confirmed in the field. Therefore, slabs measuring 12x12x6 in, deep were prepared for out-

Several more years will be required before meaningful comparisons can be made. the somewhat more rapid early scaling of the IP concretes, one laboratory specimen from each concrete was measured for air content by linear traverse, ASTM C457.

results are listed in Table 15. In every case but one, the 1P cement concretes were determined to contain more voids per cubic inch, and in half the cases, the 1P cement concretes Were calculated to have smaller values of L, In all cases, percentage air contents were comparable between concretes made with the Type I and the W from the same plant. These tests do not explain the differences in early scaling test results between the Type Is and the II%.
SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS The present study included tests of pastes, mortars, and concretes made with six Type I portland cements and six counterpart Type IP portland-pozzolan cements made at the same plant at about the same time. All the IP cements contain fly ash, introduced by intergrinding, by blending, or by combinations of these two operations. Tests were done also on each of the fly ashes used in these cements. (It is interesting that the pozzolanic strength development shown in Table 5 does not correlate with the compressive strength development of the corresponding Type 1P cements in either the concretes or the C109 mortar cubes.) The following conclusions are based on the information developed in this study : 1. The water requirements of the concretes made with the Type IP cements were usually lower than those made with the corresponding Type I cements. 2. The air-entraining agent requirements were higher in every case for the Type 1P cements than for their Type I counterparts. Increases ranged from 15 to
210%.

The average flexural and compressive strengths were lower for the Type IP cement concretes through 28 days than for the Type 1s. At the ages of 90 and 365 days, the average strengths were comparable. (Flexural strengths were not determined after 28 days.) 4. The effect of air-drying on compressive strength development was similar for concretes made with the two types of cement. 5.

types of cement were minor and inconsistent, The length of initial moist-curing period influences drying shrinkage more than cement type. 6. Resistance to freezing and thawing in water was comparable and excellent for concretes made with both types of cement. In the earlier study referred to in the Synopsis, the concretes made with 1P cements exhibited lower resistance than those made with the Type Is, This may be due to higher fly ash contents in the earlier IPs. Length of initial curing period had little effect. 7. Resistance to deicer scaling was somewhat less for the air-entrained concretes made with Type IP cements than it was for concretes containing the counterpart Type I cements. Longer initial moist-curing periods were beneficial in some cases and detrimental in others. Slabs stored outdoors for one winter and subjected to applications of deicer showed no scaling, 8, All the fly ashes were effective in reducing mortar expansion due to alkaliaggregate reaction.
