Abstract

Unaffected and ASR-affected concrete, experimentally, appear as substantially different materials. Since the material characterization is one of the main points of attention within a structural assessment, the deteriorating impact of ASR on concrete in terms of both expansion and degradation of the mechanical properties is studied. Both experimental and modelling approaches are followed.
