Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) induced damage is one of the main causes of degradation in reinforced concrete (RC) structures, especially in the high relative humidity environmental conditions. ASR involves complex dissolution-precipitation reactions in concrete that take place in the presence of alkali ions, silica, and moisture. Alkali ions diffuse into the porous aggregate through the concrete pore solution and start
the dissolution of silica by breaking silanol and siloxane bonds in the reactive aggregates.
