Modeling of alkali-silica reaction in a twophased material model
Zarina Itam1, Hazran Husain2.
Alkali-silica reaction causes major problems in concrete structures due to the rapidity of its
deformation. Factors that affect ASR include the alkali and silica content, relative humidity,
temperature and porosity of the concrete, making the relationship a complex
phenomenon to be understood. Hence, the finite element technique was used to build
models to study the damage propagation due to ASR. Seeing that ASR initializes in the
mesoscopic regions of the concrete, the damage model for ASR at the mesoscale level is
studied. The heterogeneity of the mesoscale model shows how difference in material
properties between aggregates and the cementitious matrix facilitates ASR expansion.
With this model mesoscopic, two-phased material model, the ASR phenomenon under
thermo-chemo-hygro-mechanical loading can be understood.
