Experimental Evaluation of Sulphate Limits of Mixing Water in Concrete Mortar Mix

A uniform mix of cement with sand and water is referred as Cement Mortar. But this combination of cement, sand and water has gone obsolete now a days. As, today is high pace time for infrastructure, rather high strength durable infrastructure, so, many more materials are tested to be added with cement mortar to improve its engineering properties and to replace the costliest material viz. cement. Today is the scenario of sky scrapping and complex infrastructures, which results in increasing demand of basic civil engineering material i.e. cement. Engineers are looking for alternative of expensive construction since long. Cement, binder in mortar, is an expensive and exorbitant civil engineering material and it increases the Constructional budget. Not only this, but also cement marks the highest consumption throughout the world after water. Pozzolanic materials also possess binding properties and are inert in nature thus reducing heat of hydration. Pozzolanic materials generally used in mortar production are as follows Slag Fly ash, Silica fume Metakaolin, etc, Pulkit Garg | Mr. Shashi Sharma "Experimental Evaluation of Sulphate Limits of Mixing Water in Concrete Mortar Mix" Published in International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development (ijtsrd), ISSN: 2456-6470, Volume-6 | Issue-2 , February 2022, URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/papers/ijtsrd49411.pdf Paper URL: https://www.ijtsrd.com/engineering/other/49411/experimental-evaluation-of-sulphate-limits-of-mixing-water-in-concrete-mortar-mix/pulkit-garg
