Authors:Bashir Alam, Muhammad Ashraf,

Abstract:This study presents a critical review
of the on-going techniques and strategies associated
with the mitigation of Sulphate Attack in
High-Performance Concrete structures. The materials and
methods used for controlling and detecting degradation
due to Sulphate attack are presented with a
state-of-the-art discussion of their relative merits and
demerits. The expansive reactions that lead to the
appearance of cracks, its propagation and deleterious
effects on concrete members are presented.
Keywords:Sulphate Attack, High-Performance
Concrete, Cracks.
