I have been reading a lot about epoxy granite lately and it seems people always bring up concrete lathes from WW1. I know the arguments against using Portland cement based concrete such as shrinking, long cure times, etc. I saw someone mention hydrolic cement as a possible filler but no one commented on if it would work or not. This is based more on curiosity then anything else as I'm not likely to try it anytime soon. So would it be a viable filler for columns or bases of machines? I believe it expands as it hardens so that's one positive aspect of it. Does anyone know if it has a cure rate that's faster then Portland cement? Any reasons it shouldn't work? I think it may lead to corrosion where it contacts metal due to moisture and or Ph level.
I just looked it up after posting this and it seems hydraulic cement is modified Portland cement so most likely would not be suitable for filling machines.
