It is widely understood that the tricalcium aluminate content of Portland cement is inversely related to the concrete’s ability to resist external sulfate attack. Furthermore, recent research has demonstrated a link between elevated levels of interground limestone and accelerated sulfate attack, particularly thaumasite sulfate attack at low-temperatures (below 10 °C). In this paper the relationships between Portland cement C3A-content, interground limestone content and supplementary cementitious materials (Type F fly ash and silica fume) are explored. The mortar bars cast with high-C3A cement failed much earlier than the same bars cast with moderate-C3A cement. External sulfate attack occurred more rapidly at 5 °C than at 23 °C. Limestone content did not affect the rate of external sulfate attack.
