Lime Concrete – Mix Proportions, Uses and Properties
Lime concrete is environment-friendly as it requires less energy for production of lime and emits less carbon dioxide through carbonation process compared to conventional Portland cement. Carbonation: Lime mortar hardens by absorbing carbon dioxide when exposed to atmosphere to become calcium carbonate again.
