To further our understanding of the nature of alkali-aggregate reaction products, hydrous alkali calcium silicates were prepared and studied. N,K-C-S-H products were synthesised by the reaction of alkali silicate solutions with lime or hme dispersed in sodium or potassium hydroxide solution at room
We would like to thank Dr. Chatterji for his interesting and detailed comments on our paper. We agree with Dr. Chatterji that our thinking owes a great deal to the pioneering work of Powers and Steinour though our new data has led us to propose what we feel are significant changes to the original hy
This is a very interesting and informative paper. In this paper the authors have attempted to resuscitate Powers-Steinour hypothesis of alkali-silica reaction. In their scheme calcium ion has given an added role of the rejuvenator of alkali hydroxide and the effects of the hydraulic radii of differe
