Stress Due to Alkali-Silica Reaction in Mortars

Popularity:    Hit: 183 | Visit: 1
Details
A test method and test apparatus is presented. It does not measure the length change but measures the stress generated by the swelling of the gel. The force required to prevent expansion is measured over time while the specimen and frame are immersed in a solution of 1-N NaOH at 50°C. With some test results.

Title: 1997 Building Publications - Stress Due to Alkali-Silica Reaction in Mortars.
Description:

Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) causing deterioration of mortars and concretes is due to the swelling of gel formed by the reaction of alkali in cement-based materials with reactive silica in aggregat
