Alkali-Aggregate Reactions in concrete: Methodologies applied in the evaluation of Alkali Reactivity of Aggregates for concrete

The alkali-aggregate reaction (AAR) in concrete is a group of chemical reactions that involves the reaction of certain minerals present in the aggregates with alkali and hydroxyl ions in the interstitial solution of cement paste in concrete. These reactions form an alkaline hygroscopic gel that abso...
