Trials of intergrinding of clinker, limestone, calcined clay and gypsum have shown that the softer nature of limestone and clay and the harder nature of clinker lead to a bi-modal particle size distribution of the cement [29, 58]. While the clay and limestone particles may be ground too fine, the clinker particles remain coarse.
