ACI 211.7R-20: Guide for Proportioning Concrete Mixtures with Ground Calcium Carbonate and Other Mineral Fillers
Published By | Publication Date | Number of Pages |
ACI | 2020 | 20 |
The use of ground calcium carbonate (GCC) and other mineral fillers can enhance the performance, economy, and sustainability of concrete mixtures. Modifications to the conventional proportioning method in ACI 211.1 are needed to incorporate these materials. This guide describes GCC and dust-of-fracture aggregate mineral fillers, including their properties, characterization, and qualification, and effects on concrete properties and sustainability. Recommendations are provided for proportioning concrete mixtures with these materials.
