The increased use of industrial wastes and by-products to produce concretes and blended cements is a lever to achieve carbon neutrality. Furthermore, they could improve their durability. Some pozzolanic additions can minimize the alkali-silica reaction (ASR), which is a well-known deleterious process that occurs between some reactive aggregates and the alkaline pore solution found in mortars and concretes. This work quantifies the efficiency of four pozzolanic materials (natural pozzolan, P, siliceous coal fly ash, V, silica fume, D, and blast-furnace slag, S) assessed by means of compressive strength testing, open porosity, ASR-expansion measurements, and SEM microscopy. Accelerated expansion tests were performed in mortar bars with a cement/sand ratio of 1/2.25 and a water/cement ratio of 0.47, two reactive aggregates and a non-reactive one. The major contributions of this paper are: (i) The more aggregate reactivity is, the higher ASR mitigation level was found when additions were added and (ii) The best additions for ASR inhibition are silica fume and fly ash.
