Project Description

Client Instruction:
Overview:
You are required to research and write on “Performance of Limestone Powder as Partial Cement Replacement in Concrete.” The study should examine how replacing a portion of cement with limestone powder affects the mechanical properties, durability, and sustainability of concrete. The overview should introduce the topic by explaining the environmental and economic motivations for partial cement replacement, the role of limestone powder in concrete hydration and strength development, and its potential benefits in reducing carbon footprint and construction costs. The discussion should highlight both technical feasibility and practical implications for modern construction practices.

Work Requirements:
Prepare a research paper of approximately 275 words in APA format, to be submitted by 7th December 2025. The paper must include a title page, in-text citations, and a reference page citing at least four credible scholarly sources. Formatting should follow APA guidelines: Times New Roman 12-point font, double spacing, and 1-inch margins. The writing should be formal, analytical, and concise, clearly explaining the performance, sustainability advantages, and practical applications of using limestone powder as a partial cement replacement in concrete.
