Microscopic characterization of alkali-silica reaction (ASR) affected recycled concrete mixtures induced by reactive coarse and fine aggregates
Abstract Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) is one of the most detrimental distress mechanisms leading to early deterioration of concrete infrastructure, creating large amounts of construction and demolition waste which however can be transformed into recycled concrete aggregates (RCA). Yet, as ASR is an ongoing distress mechanism, its potential of reoccurrence in RCA could cause adverse effects. Investigation of the crack propagation of RCA concrete revealed that the distress features vary widely thus, indicating different distress mechanisms in all RCA concrete. Concrete made of slightly damaged RCA shows the lease number of cracks yet, wider cracks at high expansion levels. Additionally, the distress in slightly damaged RCA concrete made of reactive coarse aggregate and RCA concrete made of reactive sand, regardless of original damage extent, is governed by cracks propagating through the residual cement paste whereas cracks propagate through the new cement paste in severely damaged RCA made of reactive coarse aggregate.
