ANALYSIS OF FROST RESISTANCE AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF DEVONIAN COMPACT LIMESTONES DERIVING FROM ONE DEPOSIT
Journal Title: Structure and Environment - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
The use of carbonate rocks in building industry as a raw material for the production of construction elements and aggregates has a long history. Yet, a stereotype approach to this group of materials orders to avoid using them in constructions exposed to moisture and frost. It applies to both elements and aggregates for frost-resistant concretes. The problem lies, above all, in significant differentiation of physical properties of available minerals and the lack of clear criteria for standard classification. The article focuses on the differentiation analysis of physical properties of rocks originating from two singled out mines of Devonian compact limestone, located in the region of Świętokrzyskie.
