CONSTITUENTS OF CEMENT & THEIR ROLE
1. Lime Control strength & soundness. If lime
decreases, strength & setting time
decreases.
60-65 (63%)
2. Silica Gives strength. If increase, it increases slow
setting.
17-25 (20%)
3. Alumina Responsible for quick setting, if in excess it
lowers the strength.
3-8 (6%)
4. Iron Oxide (Fe2O3) Gives colour & helps in fusion of different
ingredients.
0.5-6 (3%)
5. Magnesia Imparts colour & hardness. If in excess,
causes cracks in mortar & concrete & leads
to unsoundness.
0.5-4 (2%)
6. Soda+Potash Residues, causes efflorescence and cracking. 0.5-1 (1%)
7. Sulphur Trioxide Makes cement unsound. 1-2 (1.5%)

Principal mineral compounds Formula Name Symbol
➢ Besides these major compounds, alkalies (Soda & Potash) are also present.
For high strength development proper cooling.: Ambient Temperature.
When Raw Materials fuses in kiln, the resultant compounds produced are Bogue compound.
CLINKER COMPOSITION
➢ It provides best cementing property and its formed when cement is well burnt.
➢ It provides early strength and is responsible for 7 days strength.
➢ It enables clinker easy to grind & increase resistance to freezing and thawing.
➢ Generates high heat of hydration (H.O.H) and increase solubility of cement in water.
➢ H.O.H=500J/gm
➢ It hydrates and hardens slowly and takes long time to add to strength that is later
strength.(ultimate strength)
➢ It enables clinker hard to grind & decrease resistance to freezing and thawing.
➢ Generates low H.O.H and decrease solubility of cement in water.
➢ It imparts chemical resistance.
➢ H.O.H= 260J/gm
1. Tricalcium silicate, C3S --- 25-50% (average= 40%)
2. Dicalcium silicate, C2S --- 25-40% (average= 32%)
CLINKER COMPOSITION
➢ It reacts immediately with water and is responsible for flash set (initial set).
➢ It is the first compound to react with water.
➢ It decreases setting time, hence increased shrinkage & cracking.
➢ It weakens resistance to sulphate attack.
➢ Volume change increase & hence cracking.
➢ H.O.H increase & lowers ultimate strength.
➢ H.O.H= 865J/gm.
➢ Responsible for flash set but generates less heat.
➢ Poorest cementing value.
➢ If increases, it decreases strength.

3. Tricalcium Aluminate, C3A --- 5-11% (average= 10.5%)
4. Tetracalcium Alumino Ferrite, C4AF --- 8-14% (average= 9%)
HYDRATION OF CEMENT
➢ Chemical Reaction of cement with water to produces C-S-H gel(Ettringite gel).
➢ These reaction are highly exothermic.
➢ Only C3S & C2S reacts with water to produce C3S2H3(Calcium silicate hydrate) which is mainly
responsible for strength & densifies as cement sets.
➢ Along with CSH gel Ca(OH)2 is also formed as by product.
➢ Ca(OH)2 is undesirable product because it causes sulphate attack.
➢ C2S gives better cementing product than C3S as it produces more gel & less Ca(OH)2 in long term.
➢ Hydration of cement depends on:-
I. Ingredients
II. Fineness increase => Surface area increase => Rate of reaction increase
III. Temperature increase => Rate of reaction increase.
HYDRATION OF CEMENT
➢ ORDER OF HEAT OF HYDRATION ---
C3A>C3S>C4AF>C2S

➢ It is in the range 2.5 to 3.
➢ For good stone, it is greater than 2.7
STONE MINING PROCESS
QUARRYING
➢ It is a multistage process by which rock is
extracted from ground & crushed to produce
aggregate.
SEASONING
➢ All freshly quarried stones contain a certain
amount of moisture known as quarry sap,
which makes them soft and easier to work
upon . Good stones should be free from
quarry sap.
DRESSING
USES OF STONE
➢ Abutment of piers – GRANITE
➢ Facing work – GRANITE, MARBLE
➢ Kankar – HYDRAULIC LIME
