Beschreibung
Alkali–aggregate reaction represents one of the most consequential long-term degradation mechanisms for concrete dams.
This book provides a framework for diagnosing, quantifying, and modeling alkali–aggregate reaction in dam systems. It connects dam-scale evidence to analysis-ready parameters and modeling assumptions. Emphasis is on structural implications that influence stresses, cracking, and long-term displacement histories.
The book is organized as a step-by-step appraisal pathway that supports engineering decisions without requiring deep specialization in cement chemistry or experimental method development. It clarifies mechanism discrimination, introduces core-based damage quantification tools, and develops practical finite-element workflows for long-term simulation.
Designed for structural engineers, dam safety professionals, consultants, and regulators, the book is also appropriate for graduate students and researchers seeking a theoretical and application-focused entry point into appraisal of dams.
