  Strength Prediction and Optimization of Portland Limestone Cement Blended with Metakaolin and Rice Husk Ash

  By Musa Muhammad Jibrin, Olumide Olu Olubajo, Umar Omeiza Aroke

  Abstract: This study explores the effects of Rice Husk Ash (RHA) and Metakaolin (MK) on the compressive strength of Portland Limestone Cement (PLC) mortar, aiming to promote sustainable construction materials. RHA and MK, derived from agricultural and industrial byproducts, serve as supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) that offer environmental benefits and improve cement properties. Using response surface methodology (RSM) and central composite design (CCD), the research optimized the ternary blend of PLC, …

  Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3) as a Sustainable Cementitious Composite for Retrofitting Concrete Structures: A Systematic Review

  By B. Vamsi Krishna, Prakhash Neelamegam, M. Vishnupriyan

  Abstract: This systematic review evaluates the effectiveness of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3) as a sustainable material for repairing and retrofitting damaged concrete structures. LC3 is highlighted as a low-carbon alternative to Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), offering improved strength, bonding, and long-term durability. The review compiles and analyzes data from peer-reviewed experimental studies focusing on LC3’s mechanical performance, interface bonding, and durability parameters. Results consistently show higher bond strength, reduced shrinkage, …
