[EN] Volcanic pozzolans are constituted in general by vitreous material that usually is rich in SiO2 and Al2O3, which reacts with portlandite produced during cement hydration to give hydrated silicates and calcium aluminates with cementitious properties. The geological complexities of Guatemala’s topography have favored the existence of a large number of volcanoes, which have mainly generated a lot of layers of pumice and volcanic ash. 25% of Guatemala’s surface can be considered like a volcanic area in orther to be rich in pozzolanic materials, as mentioned above. The large amount of these materials and their distribution throughout the territory makes them accessible to the entire population, including low income population . Mixt...
