The effect of using aplite as a cementitious material

Master's thesis in Structural engineeringThe compressive strength of cement cubes containing aplite with different grain size distributions was measured. Varying degrees of milling and particle size reduction was looked upon. The aplite containing cubes were than compared with test cubes containing fly ash and neat cement. Density and particle size distribution was also measured. The results showed that, the greater the amount of milling the aplite, the higher the measured compressive strength was
