The effect of three fillers (ground limestone, dolomite and basalt) on the strength of cement mortars was studied on 1:2.75 mixes having a w/c ratio of 0.70. The filler content ranged from 10 to 40% of the cement weight and their fineness (specific surface) from 1,150 to 11,200 sq. cm per g. Results confirmed earlier conclusions that fillers effect on strength is primarily an accelerating effect on the cement hydration. The improvement in strength is essentially the same for all non-pozzolonic fillers increasing with both filler content and fineness. In part, this improvement in strength is attributable to the increase in the density of the mix (i.e. a lower air content) associated with the use of fillers. There is some indirect evidence that monocalcium carboaluminate is formed when the finest limestone filler (10,300 sq. cm per g) is used. This formation, however, apparently does not affect strength.
