They are produced by burning argillaceous limestones with a high clay content, and their characteristics are somewhere between those of eminently hydraulic limes and modern artificial cements. Unlike hydraulic limes, calcined natural cements cannot slake in lump form (because there is no free lime) and must be ground before use.’<br /> <br /> See also: Artificial cements.<br /> <br /> = Related articles on Designing Buildings Wiki =<br /> <br /> * Asbestos cement.<br /> * Artificial cements.<br /> * Cement and concrete companies release 2050 Climate Ambition.<br /> * Cement in Saudi Arabia.<br /> * Cement mortar.<br /> * Cement.<br /> * Ferro-cement.<br /> * Fibre cement.<br /> * High alumina cement.<br /> * Historic England.<br /> * How scientists solved the riddle of cement’s structure.<br /> * Lead-light cement.<br /> * Portland cement.<br /> * Types of cement.<br /> <br /> [[Category:DCN_Definition]] [[Category:DCN_Product_Knowledge]] [[Category:Definitions]] [[Category:Products_/_components]]</div>
