About this document

Mitigating ASR with Portland Pozzolana Cement by erpublication is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document summarizes a study on the effectiveness of Portland pozzolana cement (PPC) in mitigating alkali-silica reaction (ASR) compared to ordinary Portland cement (OPC). Aggregates from 5 quarries were tested for ASR using the accelerated mortar bar test with OPC and PPC. PPC was found to reduce ASR expansion in all aggregates compared to OPC, with reductions ranging from 20-40%. PPC is concluded to be more effective than OPC at controlling ASR in concrete due to its lower alkali content and ability to
