Contractor Report 310 Effects of cathodic protection on alkali silica reaction in reinforced concrete
Publication Year

Abstract
Enhancement of alkali levels in concrete around steel reinforcement to which cathodic protection is applied may be expected to increase the risk of alkali silica reaction with mixes containing susceptible aggregates. This report investigates whether deleterious effects are likely under these circumstances.
