Inhibition of the Alkali-Carbonate Reaction Using Fly Ash and the Underlying Mechanism

In this paper, fly ash is used to inhibit the alkali-carbonate reaction (ACR). The experimental results suggest that when the alkali equivalent (equivalent Na<sub>2</sub>Oeq) of the cement is 1.0%, the adding of 30% fly ash can significantly inhibit the expansion in low-reactivity aggreg...
