Summary:
This book gathers the peer-reviewed papers presented at the 17th International Conference on Alkali-Aggregate Reaction in Concrete (ICAAR), held in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, on May 19-24, 2024. It highlights the latest advances and innovations in the field of internal swelling reactions, particularly alkali-aggregate reaction (AAR), and combined mechanisms such as delayed ettringite formation (DEF). The conference topics encompass understanding the reaction mechanisms and the affecting factors; testing methods and preventative measures; diagnosis, evaluation, and prognosis; monitoring and NDT; structural effects and modeling at all scales; repair and remedial measures; and combined mechanisms (e.g., DEF). The contributions, which were selected by means of a rigorous international peer-review process, present a wealth of exciting ideas that will open novel research directions and foster new multidisciplinary collaborations.
Contents:
AAR mechanisms and affecting factors
DEF and coupled mechanisms
Testing for potential AAR
Preventive measures and guidelines
Repair and remedial measures

Mechanical and physcial effects at the material and structural scales of AAR and coupled mechanisms
Modelling (micro, meso and macroscales)
Cases of deterioration and management
From laboratory testing to field behaviour
Performance of sustainable materials against AAR and combined mechanisms.
