Alkali aggregate reaction related concrete deterioration in Australia
AbstractThe paper discusses the alkali aggregate reactivity of reactive aggregates found in Australia. Test methods to evaluate long term dimensional stability of potentially reactive aggregates are reported. The inclusion of highly reactive pozzolanic materials like fly ash has been found to be most effective in controlling expansion due to Australian reactive aggregates. The compatibility of the pozzolanic material, and the optimum amount of the mineral admixture are emphasised.
