Paper of RILEM TC 282-CCL: mineralogical characterization methods for clay resources intended for use as supplementary cementitious material

Adrian Alujas Diaz, Ruben Anton Snellings, Franco Alberto Zunino Sommariva, Alastair Thomas Matthew Marsh

To respond to the rapid introduction and development of calcined clays as supplementary cementitious material (SCM), the toolbox of characterization methods for cementitious materials requires extension to raw clay characterization. Borrowing concepts and ...
