The paste volume or the cement content is a parameter still not well studied regarding the performance of concrete. Actually the majority of the investigations were focused on the quality of the paste and not its quantity. However there is a permanently growing interest to reduce the paste volume in concrete, for environmental and economical reasons. Nowadays some standards define a minimum paste or cement content for certain W/C ratios, but improvements in admixtures and better grading models allow reducing of the cement content/paste volume below these limits. The collection and processing of the bibliography data allowed identifying the effects of the paste volume on some of the principal concrete properties. This research proofed throug...
