Abstract: Abstract This paper gives an overview of various factors that influences the performance of Limestone Calcined Clay Cement (LC3) concrete. Among the various research related to ternary cements, this paper discusses the influential factors, based on the strength and durability aspects. The factors such as the type and purity of kaolinite, limestone, gradation of the limestone, concentration of gypsum, calcined clay, limestone ratio, clinker content, water-to-binder ratio, method and effect of calcination, grinding criteria, optimum temperature of calcination, calcined clay content, method of curing and other factors are interpreted. Even low-grade materials with minimum purity have also been found to achieve the desired properties. Therefore depending upon the knowledge of the importance of every parameter, the best quality concrete could be developed with the available source and facilities. With the available quality and quantity of material, sustainable ternary cement could be obtained. By optimizing the various factors that influence the behavior of LC3 concretes, more economical and durable concrete can be produced. Graphical abstract
