Abstract

The Alkali Aggregate Reaction(AAR), reported first by T. E. Stanton in 1940, is a reaction between certain siliceous aggregate and hydroxyl ions present in the pore fluid of a concrete. The damage of concrete structures, deteriorated by AAR, have been reported since using the crushed stones caused by the exhaustion of natural aggregates. This study was performed to investigate the AAR of crushed stones using chemical analysis, polarization microscope, XRD, chemical method(KS F 2545, ASTM C 289), mortar bar method(KS F 2546, ASTM C 227) and Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis (EDXA) of reaction products by AAR in mortar bar.
