Abstract	This paper presents four innovative utilizations of calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement: (1) development of concrete with high early strength: 40 MPa, 6 h after its preparation, and higher than 55 MPa after 24 h; (2) design of self-leveling screed with limited curling, when unbonded to its support; (3) design of self-leveling topping mortar presenting the following properties: time of workability higher than 30 min, set within 75 min, and low drying shrinkage (<250um/m); and (4) glass-fiber-reinforced cement (GFRC) composites that can be demolded 4 h after casting and present high ductility and durability after aging in different weathering conditions.
