Study on the factors affecting alkalis release from aggregates into ASR

Alkaline minerals, like feldspars and micas, present in aggregates can release alkalis with time for concrete pore solution, being a contributor factor for the delaying ASR occurrence in some concrete structures (e.g. dams). Since there is presently no consensus on how to test for releasable alkalis...
