Portland Cement
Much confusion exists as to
the meaninir of the term "Port
land cement." To correct tho
many erroneous impressions as
to how this kind of cement came
to bo named "Portland" tho
Rivcrsido Portland Cement Com
puny has prepared tho following
historical sketch, so that a hot
ter undcrstaudinir of tho term
mny bo more Kcnernl.
Since tho dawn of civilization
"lime" has been used as a bind
er in building construction; in
fact, as long as man contented
himself with simple structures
that had to resist only tho effects
of the atmosphere, he found lime
to serve his every need as a hin
der. With the rlso of tho Ho.
mnn empire, tho want for a bin
der or cement Hint would hard
en under water and resist its ac
tion soon made itself felt. Tho
necessity for such mnteriul soon
produced it.
The Itomans found that by
mixing about three parts of
slaked lime with one part of tho
volcanic ash from Mt. Vesuvius
a cement resulted which would
nvv iw tittiM iiitano utiuut
water. This cement was called
"puzzolane," and with it tho fa
mous Konmn aqueducts and
public buildings wero construct
ed.
Up to tho end of tho eigh
teenth century it sorved all tho
needs of man as a cement. In
1795 John Shenton, an English
man, was entrusted with tho
building of the Eddystono light
house, Ho cast about to find a
local material to displace tho ex
pensive puzzolane, Ho found
that by burning a certain chalk
and grinding it to a powder ho
obtained a cement that set up
very rapidly and wns much
stronger than tho puzzolane.
This ho called Koman cement,
and with it ho built the Eddy
stone light. This Koman ce
ment was of a red-brown color.
In 1824 John Aspdin. a Leeds
mason, set about to mako Roman
cement by artificially mixing
powdered limestone and clay,
and burning the mixturo to a
clinker, which was then ground
to a fine powder, After much
experimenting ho produced a
product by this procedure which,

up' very rapiuiy unuer water to
a hard, stonelike mass of gray
color, resembling the famous
Portland building stone. From
this resemblance he called it
Portland cement, to distinguish
it from Roman cement and puz
zolane. It soon displaced all
other cements.
Portland cement, then, is an
artificiallyprepared product made
by mixing powdored limestone
and clay substance together in
definite proportions and burning
them to a clinker, which is then
pulverized.
Since Aspdin's day great im
provement in tho quality of
Portland cement has been made.
