The precipitation of mirabilite during the wetting stage of a cyclic total immersion test has widely been implicated as the main damage mechanism of sodium sulfate. We, however, hypothesized that the damage contribution from thenardite cannot be discounted in laboratory tests. To verify the supposition, a series of laboratory experiments was undertaken by subjecting three types of rocks to the sodium...
Eight widely used Japanese building stones were subjected to crystallization attacks by three types of destructive salts to investigate whether it is possible to estimate durability of the stones solely from their pore characteristics. The influence of pore size and their distribution on salt uptake and salt crystallization damage was also evaluated. Total porosity was found to have a significant...
