AMIE, a finite element/extended finite element framework, has been designed to provide the tools to run detailed microstructural simulations; this paper demonstrates the possibility of simulating the mechanisms underlying the alkali–silica-react[...]

Attempts to model ASR expansion are usually limited by the difficulty of taking into account the heterogeneous nature and size range of reactive aggregates. This work is a part of an overall project aimed at developing models to predict the pote[...]

Several papers show that the use of lithium limits the development of alkali–silica reaction (ASR) in concrete. The aim of this study is to improve the understanding of lithium's role on the alteration mechanism of ASR.
The approach used is a[...]

Siliceous limestone aggregates have “pessimum” behaviours similar to those observed for pure siliceous aggregates such as flint or opal. For high alkali contents concretes based on fine and coarse reactive siliceous limestone aggregates swell le[...]

Expansions due to alkali–silica reaction (ASR) in the accelerated concrete prism test (ACPT–60 °C) show a significant reduction at 13 weeks compared to 52 week testing in the standard concrete prism test (CPT–38 °C). Previous work indicated that[...]

The mechanism of the alkali–carbonate reaction (ACR) has been recognized as being different from that of the more common alkali–silica reaction (ASR). However, the identification of alkali–silica gel in ACR concrete from Cornwall, Ontario, Canad[...]

Recently, AAR was identified in submerged piles of some bridges in tidal waters. Microstructural examination detected chloroaluminate salts in some cracks. To clarify whether seawater had influenced the deterioration an experimental program was [...]

Reactivity of reclaimed concrete aggregate produced from concrete affected by alkali–silica reaction
This paper presents results from a research program that focused on studying the reactivity of reclaimed concrete aggregate (RCA) produced from concrete affected by alkali–silica reaction (ASR). The results showed that RCA produced from ASR-affe[...]

Typical examples of so-called alkali-carbonate reaction (ACR) in the Canadian field concretes in Ontario, CSA concrete prism, RILEM concrete microbars and RILEM mortar bar containing Pittsburg aggregate, were examined petrographically based on p[...]
