Biological Resistance of Cement Composites Filled with Limestone Powders

In this paper, we consider a method of increasing biological resistance and biological durability of buildings and constructions that are subject to destruction from the impact of microorganisms activity. This article presents the results of studies of innovative materials in the field of bioresistant building materials. Powders of milled quartz sand and limestone were the fillers for the composites. Limestone used for the experiments is from the Chechnya depostits. We have implemented optimization for the cement composites compositions using the methods of mathematical experiment design. We derived the dependences describing how the bioresistance coefficient, the elastic modulus and the water demand depend on the granulometric composition after 3 and 9 months of aging in the environment of filamentous fungi. We have found that the multifractional compositions have a higher bioresistance coefficient. We determined the fungal resist compositions.
