ASR Issues for reused concrete
ASR Issues for reused concrete
(OP)
Hi,
We will be demolishing some walls and would like to reuse the crushed concrete as base course for rigid pavements.
The concern is about Alkali-Silica reaction (ASR) that may affect the new pavement. What are your thoughts about this?
Is any guidelines that specify the allowable amount of alkali-silica in concrete, so it can be reused? What is the test that normally is conducted for checking this?
Thanks for your help.
