An optional requirement for Class F fly ash is to limit its alkali content to 1.5% maximum. Class C fly ash, which has usually higher lime (CaO) content than Class F, is considered less effective to prevent ASR unless a higher replacement of cement is used. ASTM C441 is used to evaluate fly ash with a 75% reduction in expansion at 14 …
