Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alkali-Aggregate Reaction in Concrete: A World Review is unique in providing authoritative and up to date expert information on the causes and effects of Alkali-Aggregate Reaction (AAR) in concrete structures worldwide. In 1992 a first edition entitled The Alkali-Silica Reaction in Concrete, edited by Professor Narayan Swamy, was published in a first attempt to cover this concrete problem from a global perspective, but the coverage was incomplete. This completely new edition offers a fully updated and more universal coverage of the world situation concerning AAR and includes a wealth of new evidence and research information that has accumulated in the intervening years. Although there are various textbooks offering readers sections that deal with AAR deterioration and damage to concrete, no other single book brings together the views of recognised international experts in the field, and the wealth of scattered research information that is available. It provides a ‘state of the art’ review and deals authoritatively with the mechanisms of AAR, its diagnosis and how to treat concrete affected by AAR. It is illustrated by numerous actual examples from around the world, and comprises specialist contributions provided by senior engineers and scientists from many parts of the world. The book is divided into two distinct but complementary parts. The first five chapters deal with the most recent findings concerning the mechanisms involved in the reaction, methods concerning its diagnosis, testing and evaluation, together with an appraisal of current methods used in its avoidance and in the remediation of affected concrete structures. The second part is divided into eleven chapters covering each region of the world in turn. These chapters have been written by experts with specialist knowledge of AAR in the countries involved and include an authoritative appraisal of the problem and its solution as it affects concrete structures in the region. Such an authoritative compilation of information on AAR has not been attempted previously on this scale and this work is therefore an essential source for practising and research civil engineers, consultant engineers and materials scientists, as well as aggregate and cement producers, designers and concrete suppliers, especially regarding projects outside their own region.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alkali-silica reaction, or ASR, is a common deterioration mechanism that subjects concrete to internal expansive stresses. Previous research on the structural effects of ASR has shown that if a structure is effectively confined by reinforcement (e.g., three-dimensional reinforcement configuration), it is unlikely that its performance will be compromised by the development of ASR. On the other hand, in structures that are not effectively confined by reinforcement (e.g., no transverse reinforcement present, such as slabs and walls), unrestrained expansion occurs in the direction that is lacking restraint, possibly introducing a structural vulnerability. Multiple laboratory studies have been conducted to identify the structural implications of ASR in reinforced concrete. However, large-scale tests on ASR-damaged concrete elements without transverse reinforcement have not been found in the literature and the structural implications of ASR on that type of elements therefore remain uncertain. The research described in this dissertation studied the effects of ASR-related damage on the shear behavior of full-scale structural concrete elements without transverse reinforcement. The main objective was to quantify the effects that different severity levels of ASR had on the shear strength and behavior of the test specimens. This objective was accomplished through a full-scale experimental program. A total of ten specimens modeled after typical structural walls were fabricated in the laboratory and subsequently tested in shear, at different target levels of ASR expansion. The development of ASR was facilitated through the use of known reactive materials and aggressive conditioning regimes. The progress of specimen deterioration was monitored and correlated to structural test results. Structural test results did not reveal any deficiencies in the shear performance of the specimens at any level of ASR-related expansion examined in this test program. Based on the results of this research, several recommendations were made for the assessment of ASR-related deterioration and residual shear strength of ASR-affected structures in the field

Download or read book Diagnosis Prognosis of AAR Affected Structures written by Victor E. Saouma and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-09-21 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the work of the RILEM Technical Committee 259-ISR. Addressing two complementary but fundamental issues: the kinetics of the reaction, and how this will affect the integrity of the structure (serviceability and strength), it also provides methodology for assessing past deterioration to enable readers to make engineering/science-based predictions concerning future expansion. The book is divided into six major topics: selection and interpretation of optimal monitoring system for structures undergoing expansion to monitor the progress of the swelling evolution and its consequences; development/refinement of current laboratory procedures to determine the kinetics of the reaction i.e. expansion vs (future) time, and to determine the kinetic characteristics of the time-dependent reaction to be used in a finite element simulation; extrapolation of results from structural component laboratory testing; selection of material properties based on data from existing structures affected by the alkali silica reaction or delayed ettringite formation; identification of critical features that should be present in a finite element code, development of test problems for validation, and a survey of relevant programs able to conduct a transient structural analysis of a structure undergoing chemically induced expansion; and lastly guidelines for finite element codes. The book is intended for practitioners responsible for concrete structures affected by the damaging alkali aggregate reaction, engineers dealing with aging structures, and researchers in the field.
