26、ES, p. 13CHAPTER 1INTRODUCTIONThis guide provides recommendations for proportioning normalweight concrete with ground limestone and dust-of-fracture mineral fillers. It is intended to supplement ACI 211.1. Proportioning methods for ground limestone and for dust-of-fracture mineral filler are discuss

27、ed separately.Mineral filler is defined as a finely divided mineral product at least 65 percent of which passes the No. 200 (75 m) sieve. Ground limestone is a purposefully manufactured fine product composed primarily of calcium carbonate and with particles sized within narrow ranges. Ground limesto

28、ne has been used successfully in concrete in Europe for decades, either added to the concrete mixture separately from the cement or interground with clinker to form portland-lime-stone cement.Dust-of-fracture mineral filler is rock dust created during production, processing, or handling of quarried

29、stone. Such materials are not purposefully manufactured and can vary in mineral composition and other physical characteristics, depending on the parent stone from which they are derived, the crushing process, and the washing or air separation process.This guide does not address precipitated calcium

30、carbonate or material finer than the No. 200 (75 m) sieve in natural sand. Although ground limestone typically falls within the definition of mineral filler, it is dealt with separately in this guide from other mineral fillers. It is manufactured under controlled conditions to be a consistent produc

31、t. Dust-of-fracture mineral filler consisting primarily of calcium carbonate is not considered ground limestone.The aggregate suspension mixture proportioning method described in ACI 211.6T has been used to proportion concrete with ground limestone and dust-of-fracture mineral filler.Concrete mixtur

32、e proportioning is becoming more crit-ical with changing government regulations and policies for sustainable development in the construction industry. Ground limestone has a lower embodied energy and lower CO2emission during its production than an equivalent mass of portland cement. This guide can f

33、acilitate the use of ground limestone and other mineral fillers as a means of optimizing the cementitious materials content of concrete, thereby increasing sustainability.Applicability of these materials is not limited to a select class or type of concrete but can be considered for use in a wide var

34、iety of applications and production methods. The described proportioning methods provide a first approxima-tion of proportions intended for trial batches in the labo-ratory or field, which should be adjusted as necessary to produce the desired characteristics of the concrete.Ground limestone and dus

35、t-of-fracture mineral filler can also be used in structural lightweight concrete. The princi-ples described herein can be similarly used to modify ACI 211.2 to incorporate these materials.CHAPTER 2DEFINITIONSACI provides a comprehensive list of definitions through an online resource, “ACI Concrete T

39、ry similar to the typical selection process described in ACI 211.1. Mixture constituents such as coarse and fine aggregate (ACI 221R), cementitious materials (ACI 225R; ACI 232.2R; ACI 233R; ACI 234R), admixtures (ACI 212.3R), and water that are commonly used for propor-tioning concrete are usually

40、suitable when proportioning with ground limestone and dust-of-fracture mineral filler. The most significant adjustments to proportions will be in amount of water used, the type and dosage of admixtures, and minor changes to coarse and fine aggregate ratios.American Concrete Institute Copyrighted Mat

41、erial www.concrete.org2 PROPORTIONING CONCRETE MIXTURES WITH GROUND LIMESTONE AND OTHER MINERAL FILLERS (ACI 211.7R-15)3.2Ground limestoneGround limestone is manufactured to a specific and consis-tent particle size distribution. A wide variety of different median particle sizes is available. Ground

42、limestone is made up primarily of calcium carbonate. Calcium carbonate occurs in three distinct crystal forms: calcite, aragonite, and vaterite. Calcite has a hexagonal crystal system and is predominant in nature.Ground limestone may be used to replace cementi-tious materials or to increase the tota

43、l powder content in the mixture without increasing the cementitious materials content. The amount used depends on the characteristics of the ground limestone and the desired concrete properties.3.3Dust-of-fracture mineral fillerDust-of-fracture mineral filler is produced during crushing of large qua

44、rried stone or gravel. The shape and particle size distribution can vary depending on the parent material and methods of production. This material should be essentially free of clay or shale for use in concrete. Dust-of-fracture mineral fillers may be supplied in one of two forms:1. DryThis material

45、 is mechanically processed as a dry and loose powder, stored in silos, and transported in pneu-matic tankers.2. WetThis material is usually combined with manufac-tured sand. The combined material is commonly called No. 10 screening, dry screening, crusher fines, or simply manu-factured sand. It usua

46、lly has a moisture content greater than 1 percent. The moisture comes from the water used for dust suppression and exposure to precipitation while in a stockpile.Dust-of-fracture mineral filler finer than the No. 200 (75 m) sieve in unwashed manufactured sand typically ranges from 10 to 20 percent o

47、f the sand mass. Washing is often performed to reduce this amount to less than 5 or 7 percent as required by ASTM C33/C33M.CHAPTER 4GROUND LIMESTONE AND MINERAL FILLER CHARACTERIZATION AND QUALIFICATION4.1IntroductionGround limestone and dust-of-fracture mineral filler are derived from a variety of

48、sources and can differ widely in their characteristics. The main characteristics affecting concrete properties are particle morphology (shape, angu-larity, and texture), mineralogy, particle size, particle size distribution, deleterious materials, and density. These char-acteristics ultimately deter

49、mine concrete performance.Specification limits should be set to assure that these prop-erties are suitable and sufficiently consistent for the intended use. Limits for ground limestone in blended cements are described in ASTM C595/C595M.4.2Morphology (shape, angularity, and texture)The particle morphology of ground limestone and dust-of-fracture mineral filler can be described in terms of shape, angularity, and texture. Shape generally describes geomet-rical characteristics at the coarsest scale, angularity at an intermediate scale,
