Alkali-Silica Reaction

Alkali‐silica reaction occurs when aggregates containing non‐crystalline (amorphous) silica react with alkali hydroxide in cement paste to form a gel that swells as it adsorbs water from the surrounding cement paste or the

  • environment. These gels can induce enough

expansive pressure to damage the concrete.

Alkali-Silica Reaction

Alkali‐silica reaction can be controlled using certain supplementary cementitious materials. In the proper proportions, silica fume, fly ash, and ground granulated blast‐furnace slag can significantly reduce or eliminate expansion due to alkali‐silica reactivity. Lithium compounds have also been used to reduce ASR.

Fineness Modulus

Fineness modulus (n.) an index of the coarseness or fineness of an aggregate; it is computed as the sum of the fraction retained on each full series sieve starting from the No. 100 sieve.

Fineness Modulus

So what is the fineness modulus trying to tell us? If you plot the gradation curve, the percent retained is the length of a line drawn from the curve to the top

  • f the plot. Since we only use full series sieves, the

data points are equally spaced along the opening size

  • axis. If you assign a relative width of one to each

line, the fineness modulus is really an approximation

  • f the area above the gradation curve. The greater

the area, the coarser the sand.

Fineness Modulus

If we examine the ASTM specification for concrete sand, the lower bound of the gradation specification represents the coarsest possible sand you could use and the upper bound of the specification represents the finest possible sand. The fineness moduli of those two gradations are 3.45 and 2.15, respectively. So, despite the name, fineness modulus is an index measurement of the coarseness

  • f the sand!
