Abstract
On 20 cement pastes made from cements of variable C(3)A and SO3 conten ts and cured at different curing conditions the effect of cement compo sition on the extent of expansion was studied. It appears that the ext ent of the generated expansion depends especially on the C(3)A and SO3 contents in cement, but not on the SO3/C(3)A ratio. The extent of exp ansion increases with the amount of water supplied to the cement paste from outside.
