There are still research gaps regarding the effects of key parameters such as water-to-cementitious materials ratio (w/cm), type of binder and pore structure characteristics on the response of concrete to special forms of sulfate attack: physical salt attack (PSA) and thaumasite sulfate attack (TSA). Hence, this study aims at developing an innovative type of concrete: nano-modified fly ash concrete, incorporating various dosages of nano-silica (NS) or nano-alumina (NA) and fly ash, and explores its efficiency in resisting various forms of sulfate attack.
