ER66 Removing the barriers to the use of significant levels of SCMs in concrete production in NZ (2021)

This research was undertaken to identify ways of reducing barriers and risks in using significant levels of supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) in concrete production within New Zealand. Use of these binders is seen as a medium-term solution for reducing carbon emissions associated with Portland cement. SCMs included in this investigation are industrial and natural pozzolans and latent hydraulic binders.
