Abstract: Alkali–aggregate reaction in concrete structures consists of a chemically deleterious reaction between alkalis liberated during the cement hydration and reactive minerals present in the aggregates like silica, silicate or carbonate. The process leads to the… read more here.

DOI: 10.21660/2018.51.mat114
Abstract: Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) is one of the major causes of expansion, which ultimately leads to failure in concrete. When reactive concrete is subjected to humidity, alkali silicate hydrate gel (ASR gel) is formed. The swollen… read more here.
