Abstract
The shaped article is obtained via a cementitious reaction of a particulate composition reactive with water, whereby said reaction is obtained between said composition and an aqueous, liquid or gaseous phase. The particles of the shaped article are present in the form of interlocked particles, whereby the interlocking of said particles is obtained in a 100% water-saturated atmosphere.
