Abstract:
Bleeding and finishing issues can result in an increased risk of concrete scaling. This risk may be further increased when supplementary cementitious materials and Type IL cement are used. This article focuses on petrographic examination of scaled flatwork constructed of concrete containing Type IL cement and fly ash, and Type IL cement and slag cement.
