| Abstrakt: |
Damage due to alkali-silica reaction (ASR) may be found in concrete structures and pavements. Due to the alkalinity of Portland cement, a chemical reaction takes place at the interface between certain types of aggregate and the cement paste. The chemical reaction produces a chemical compound generally referred to as the “ASR gel”. In the presence of moisture, the ASR gel expands causing the aggregate to separate from the surrounding cement paste. This process causes the concrete to deteriorate. |
