Popis: The two most common polymorphs in industrial alite, $M_1$ and $M_3$, were characterized at the molecular scale. Different methods were employed and discussed to assess mechanical properties and specific heat of both polymorphs. The calculated homogenized elastic moduli and specific heat were found in good agreement with experimental measurements. A comparative analysis of spacial Young's modulus reveal isotropic and anisotropic spacial distribution for $M_1$ and $M_3$ respectively. A more isotropic compressive strength is also reported for $M_1$ when compared to $M_3$ polymorph. Cleavage energies computation allowed to proposed equilibrium shapes for both polymorph, with significant differences. While the lowest cleavage energies were found along (100) and (001) for both polymorphs, the constructed $M_1$ crystal possesses 3 independent facets, against seven for the $M_3$ polymorph.
