Alkali-Silica Reaction (ASR) Brief

ASR is a reaction between the alkali hydroxides in concrete and reactive forms of silica in the aggregate. The reaction forms a gel that swells when moisture is present. The two step process can be visualized as: 1. Alkali + Silica → Gel reaction Product. 2. Gel reaction Product + Moisture → Expansion. Factors Affecting ASR

Waste Glass Dust to Reduce Alkali Silica Reaction

Millions of tons of generated glass are wasted each year and being added to landfills in which glass takes one million years to decompose. Since the wasted glass contains a significant amount of silica, a main component in other supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), this research focuses on whether waste glass powder can be used to reduce alkali-silica reaction (ASR). …

Summary Report: Alkali Silica Reactivity (ASR) Risk …

Higher levels of reactive silica in aggregates can be detrimental to concrete if it reacts with the alkaline cement paste. Many aggregates, especially the surface aggregates used in Tennessee, have a relatively high siliceous content (e.g., gravels, siliceous limestones, granites, and quartzite). Aggregates with Alkali Silica Reaction (ASR)

Optimizing Concrete Mixes by Concurrent Use of Fly Ash and Quarry Dust

The use of fly ash in concrete is desirable because of benefits such as useful disposal of a byproduct, increased workability, reduction of cement consumption, increased sulfate resistance, increased resistance to alkali-silica reaction and decreased permeability. However, the use of fly ash leads to a reduction in early strength of concrete. The use of quarry dust in concrete is …

Alkali-silica reaction (ASR)

In an alkali-silica reaction (ASR) alkali-reactive siliceous constituents of the aggregates react with the alkali and hydroxide ions (K⁺, Na⁺ and OH⁻) in the pore solution of the concrete to swellable alkali silica gel. Under adverse conditions, the volume of the alkali silicate gel may gradually expand to such an extent as to cause ...
