Because of the excessive heat generated during hydration of double- shell tank waste grouts using 47 wt% blast furnace slag/47 wt% class F fly ash/6 wt% type I/II Portland cement, a modified formulation was recommended for testing of Tank 106-AN grout. The recommended dry blend is: 40 wt% agricultural grade CaCO{sub 3} (ground limestone), 28 wt% blast furnace slag, 28 wt% class F fly ash, and 4 wt% type I/II cement. Verification studies with this dry blend showed that the only criterion not met in all cases was for drainable liquid
