The utilized limestone powder (LP1) contained wt% of CaCO 3, while its density was equal to 2810 kg/m 3. Both the cement and limestone powder components were ground by using a ball. XRD analysis. The hydration products of the limestonecontaining paste obtained after 28 days of aging were investigated by XRD as shown in Fig. 2.
