The quality and quantity of the limestone used plays a major part in the strength of concrete produced with PLC. Studies have shown that limestone contents up to 15% may actually increase early-age strength as a combined result of improving particle packing, increasing the rate of cement hydration and production of calcium carboaluminate.

The limestone acts as a seed crystal for the cement, better distributing the reaction products and increasing the reactivity of the cement. As there is always unhydrated cement in the concrete, this change will have no real measurable effect on the use of fly ash. The cement might have a reduced water demand, and the coarser cement gradation ...

Limestone is used as a raw material for the production of cement. The powdered limestone is heated with clay to produce cement as a product. Limestone helps in minimizing water loss due to absorption. Limestone is also known as calcium carbonate which is formed by the accumulation of sediments that have carbonate minerals.

Limestone for cement production. Cement, used to make concrete, is a mixture of two main materials – lime and marl (a calcareous clay). Cement was imported until local cement works were established. In New Zealand it was first produced near Warkworth, and in the 1850s was used in the Queen Street sewer and other Auckland construction projects.
