Does gypsum formation during sulfate attack on concrete lead to expansion?

Abstract. Sulfate attack on Portland cement concrete is often said to arise from each of two major sulfate reactions: (1) The sulfate ions react with C{sub 3}A and its hydration products to form ettringite with an increase in volume that results in expansion and subsequent cracking of the concrete; (2) The sulfate ions react with calcium …Web
