Properties of Sustainable Self-Compacting Mortar Incorporating Limestone Filler
Limestone filler (LF) is a natural material produced from grinding calcitic-limestone rocks in fine powder. The LF usage in the self-compacting mortar (SCM) can lower its cost and resolve the LF disposal problem. Hence, This research’s primary purpose is to optimize limestone filler content in the SCM to maximize the SCM sustainability level without compromising its properties. Limestone filler was used as a partial replacement of cement with percentages up to 15%. The fresh, hardened properties and hydration kinetics of self-compacting mortar were evaluated. Results show LF content improved early strength and hydration. Increasing LF content can reduce the adverse effect on the mechanical properties due to cement dilution.
