Abstract

Abstract A high compressive strength concrete is disclosed. The concrete is formed by mixing with water a general-use cement, dolomitic limestone as a low-silica manufactured fine aggregate, and from about 5 to 15 percent by weight, based on the manufactured fine aggregate, of a precipitate comprising CaO-MgO from the gaseous effluent from a kiln burning dolomitic limestone, and curing the mixture.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 59 words
A cementitious structural composition consisting essentially of Portland cement, dolomitic limestone as a low-silica manufactured fine aggregate, water and from about 5 to 15 percent by weight, based on the manufactured fine aggregate, of a precipitate comprising CaO-MgO from the gaseous effluent from a kiln burning dolomitic limestone, said precipitate having a particle size essentially less than 5 microns.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 59 words
A cementitious structural composition consisting essentially of Portland cement, dolomitic limestone as a low-silica manufactured fine aggregate, water and from about 5 to 15 percent by weight, based on the manufactured fine aggregate, of a precipitate comprising CaO-MgO from the gaseous effluent from a kiln burning dolomitic limestone, said precipitate having a particle size essentially less than 5 microns.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 13 words
A composition as claimed in claim 1 additionally containing a coarse limestone aggregate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 36 words
A composition as claimed in claim 1 wherein the precipitate contains from about 34.4 to 38.1 percent by weight calcium, calculated as CaO and from about 25.4 to 36.1 percent by weight magnesium, calculated as MgO.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 36 words
A composition as claimed in claim 2 wherein the precipitate has a calcium content calculated as CaO of about 35 percent by weight and a magnesium content calculated as MgO of about 26 percent by weight.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 89 words
A cementitious structural composition consisting of from 11 to 14 percent by weight Portland cement, from about 33.8 to 38.1 percent by weight of dolomitic limestone as a low-silica manufactured fine aggregate, about 46 percent by weight coarse limestone aggregate, from about 5 to 15 percent by weight, based on the manufactured fine aggregate, of a precipitate comprising CaO-MgO from the gaseous effluent from a kiln burning dolomitic limestone, said precipitate having a particle sizing of essentially less than 5 microns and sufficient water to form a workable mixture.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 89 words
A cementitious structural composition consisting of from 11 to 14 percent by weight Portland cement, from about 33.8 to 38.1 percent by weight of dolomitic limestone as a low-silica manufactured fine aggregate, about 46 percent by weight coarse limestone aggregate, from about 5 to 15 percent by weight, based on the manufactured fine aggregate, of a precipitate comprising CaO-MgO from the gaseous effluent from a kiln burning dolomitic limestone, said precipitate having a particle sizing of essentially less than 5 microns and sufficient water to form a workable mixture.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 31 words
A composition as claimed in claim 1 wherein the manufactured fine aggregate contains 30 percent by weight calcium, calculated as CaO and about 22 percent by weight magnesium, calculated as MgO.
