Cements that harden by reaction with water and form a water-resistant product.
Portland Cement (P.C.) Portland cement is a hydraulic cement
capable of setting, hardening and remains stable under water. It is composed of calcium silicates and some amount of gypsum.

Reactivity of cement with water is a function of its fineness.
Generally, the finer a cement, the more rapidly it will react, and the strength development will be enhanced (expensive).

Types of Portland CementASTM C 150, Standard Specifications for Portland Cement
Type I: General purpose. For use when the special properties specified for any other types are not required.
Type II: For general use, more specially when moderate sulfate resistance or moderate heat of hydration is desired.
Type III: For use when high early strength is desired. (limit the C3A content of the cement to maximum 15%)
Type IV: For use when low heat of hydration is desired. Type V: For use when high sulfate resistance is desired.
(Maximum limit of 5% on C3A)

In classic research from over seventy years ago Bouge and Lerch* found that of the four portland cement phases only C3S and C2S developed appreciable compressive strength when pure samples of each were hydrated.
The compressive strength found by Bogue and Lerch** are plotted in the next Fig. as a function of age. Compressive strengths of C3A and C4AF, hydrated alone “A” and have not been plotted explicitly.

The compressive strength found by Bouge and Lerch** for hydrated samples of the pure cement phases C3S and C2S are plotted as a function of age. The compressive strengths of C3A and C4AF, hydrated along and with gypsum, fall within the cross-hatched region labeled “A” and have not been plotted explicitly. The time scale is linear. The time scale is logarithmic, which has the effect of expanding the early ages, and this shows the differences between strength gain of C3S and C2S pastes.

The Structure of Concrete The type, amount, size, shape & distribution of
phases present in a solid material constitute its structure.
Concrete Consists of aggregates, paste and voids. The macrostructure of concrete is shown below:

The structure of the aggregates in concrete is important but it can be characterized as a macrostructure which is visible to the human eye.
The limit of resolution of the unaided human eye is approximately 1/5 millimeter which is 200 microns.

The use of both light and electron microscopes allows the study of the microstructure of concrete at the submicron level.
The microstructure of concrete can be divided into regions:

One way to view cement paste is to consider the hydration of one grain of cement.
The partial hydration of one grain of cement is schematically represented in the next slide.
There are many details in this process that are not yet understood, but there is sufficient information available to allow a consistent mental picture to be considered.

The Microstructure of Portland Cement Concrete
The hydration products formed inside and outside the cement grain are schematically represented.
The multiple nature of the cement grain is neglected and assumed to be a single phase that shows two types of products.
P1 refers to the “primary” portlandite which appears early in the originally water-filled space.

The hydration of a number of cement grains is schematically represented in the next slide at different degrees of hydration.
The fresh paste (i.e., the initial combination of water and cement grains) is drawn to approximately represent the 0.4 water/cement ratio, and thus there are not enough hydration products to fill the originally-water-filled space and a capillary porosity remains in the final microstructure.

A schematic representation of the hydration of a number of cement grains. The multiphase nature the cement grains has been neglected as this is like the hydration of tricalcium silicate alone. (a) Fresh paste of water-to cement ration of 0.4 is shown cement grains in the originally water-filled space. (b) After 33% hydration, the cement grains now have inner hydration regions and outer products which form a “columnar zone” around each grain. (c)After 67% hydration, the un-hydrated cores are clearly surrounded by thick “rims” of inner hydration products and the columnar zone of outer products is growing on the surface of each grain. The primary portlandite, P1, is shown with the dendrite morphology. (d) At 100% hydration, the un-hydrated cement has been consumed but the shape of the original cement grains can be distinguished if the inner product differs from the columnar zone of outer products. The intergrowth of the columnar zones from two different grains is shown at several points, but this would be larger at low water/cement rations.
Originally water-filled space = clear, unhydrated cement = , inner hydration products = ,outer hydration products = , & primary portlandite = P1.

The originally-water-filled space within the cement paste becomes the capillary pores which act as stress concentrations and reduce the strength significantly.
The strength of most engineering materials is increased with a decrease in porosity, and by controlling the water/ cement ratio the engineer is assured that the basic porosity of the paste is also controlled. That is not to say the other sources of porosity will not occur, but at least the cement paste will have a given porosity.

If cement paste specimens are prepared with a range of w/c ratios it is apparent that the density of high w/c samples is much lower than low w/c samples.
This is illustrated in the next slide in a presentation originally given by T.C. Powers*.
