Original Abstract

This work presents the applicability of limestone aggregate and limestone fines to dolomitic lime-based mortars. The role of aggregates on the properties of dolomitic lime mortars was examined by comparing pure quartz sand and limestone aggregate and its quantity in the mortar. Limestone aggregate and limestone fines accelerated the carbonation reaction in the mortars, but the positive impact of limestone aggregates to strength properties of mortars was not observed. Mortars with limestone aggregate showed higher total porosity and water absorption than those with quartz aggregate. Similar results was obtained for mortars with limestone fines. It was found that limestone aggregate and limestone fines, used in this work, is not so suitable and applicable to the dolomitic lime-based mortar as to the air lime-based mortars.
