This paper deals with the application of various test methods for monitoring the progression of alkalisilica reaction (ASR) in laboratory concrete mixtures. The effectiveness of each method is reported. Concrete specimens were stored at 38 Β°C in high humidity environment according to the Canadian CS
An accelerated laboratory test on concrete prisms is being developed which shows good correlation with the observed field performance of concrete structures damaged due to Alkali-Silica Reaction (ASR). The procedure for the test was determined by collecting a substantial database on actual structur
Current concern with alkali silica reactions is due to rising alkali contents of cements, changed concrete technology, and necessity of employing marginal aggregates in many areas, as well as to new reports of field damage coming to light. A brief overall view of the physicochemical basis for alkal
Both field observations and subsequent laboratory experiments showed that the presence of free Ca(OH)~ is a necessary condition for the breakdown of a PortlaHd cement concrete structure due to the destructive alkali-silica reaction. The complete removal of free Ca(OH) 2 either by leaching with a con
