In the present paper, results of alkali reactivity tests for selected silica aggregates, both rapid and slow alkali reactive, with the use of ASTM procedures, have been presented. The tests have covered the determination of the aggregate silica content dissolved in a solution of sodium hydroxide; scale of the expansion of mortar and concrete bars with the silica aggregate and high‐alkali cement; as well as scale of the expansion of the mortar bars stored in a sodium hydroxide solution at 80 °C. Exemplary photographs of the microstructure of alkali reaction products for the selected silica aggregates have also been presented. Summing up the results of standard methods of the aggregate testing, considering their alkali sensitivity, the method...
