Abstract
The paper discloses results of durability studies of alkali activated concretes based on different alkali sources using aggregates capable to alkali-silica reaction (ASR). Active aggregates are representing by perlite, andesite, basalt and sandstone. It is shown that the alkali-reactive aggregates, in degree of their influence on expansion deformations occurring in the slag alkaline concretes may be placed in the following row: perlite< sand< sandstone< basalt< andesite, and a growth of expansion deformations is observed with increase in the active silica content in the aggregate. Also it is set that alkaline components, in degree of their influence on the rate of expansion deformations development in the slag alkaline concretes made with reactive aggregates, may be placed in the following sequence: Na2CO3<Na2O SiO2 < NaOH< Na2O 2SiO2.
