Understanding Cement said: "In this first video we look at polished sections in the SEM of concrete from a bridge that was demolished due to alkali-silica reaction (ASR).
"The reactive aggregate in this video is chert, a rock type composed largely of microcrystalline silica."
A second video on ASR will be available within the next few weeks.
