Which of the following statements are wholly correct regarding broken-brick aggregate useable in concretes? 1. Broken-brick aggregate is obtained by crushing waste bricks; and it has a density varying between 1000 kg/m3 - 1200 kg/m3. 2. Such aggregate is usable in concrete for foundation in light buildings, floorings and walkways. 3. Such aggregate may also be used in light-weight reinforced concrete floors.

Which one of the following statements is not correct with respect to fly ash?
A
As part replacement of cement in the range of 15% - 30%, fly ash reduces the strength in the initial period, but once the Pozzolanic process sets in, higher strength can be obtained.
B
Fly ash as a part replacement of sand has a beneficial effect on strength even at early age.
C
Fly ash as a part replacement of sand is economical.
D
A simultaneous replacement of cement and fine aggregates enables the strength at a specified age to be equalled depending upon the water content.

Which one of the following statements is not correct with respect to the properties of cement?
A
Highly reactive Pozzolanas enhance the early age strength of the composite cement.
B
Pozzolanic activity refines pore structure which decreases electrolytic resistance of concrete.
C
The expansion due to alkali-silica reaction can be controlled by replacement of as high as 60% of OPC with high-calcium Pozzolana.
D
Such high amounts of replacement cements result in higher accelerated carbonation depths compared to pure use of OPC only.
