The Microbar Kit offers an accelerated test (3 days) of mortar or concrete's dimensional stability (based on the TANG method).
The alkali-reaction kinetics can be accelerated by a temperature increase and by the presence of water and alkali. The method based on this approach allows a 3 day test duration.
