This book gathers the peer-reviewed papers presented at the 17th International Conference on Alkali-Aggregate Reaction in Concrete (ICAAR), held in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, on May 19-24, 2024. It highlights the latest advances and innovations in the field of internal swelling reactions, particularly alkali-aggregate reaction (AAR), and combined mechanisms such as delayed ettringite formation (DEF). The conference topics encompass understanding the reaction mechanisms and the affecting factors; testing methods and preventative measures; diagnosis, evaluation, and prognosis; monitoring and NDT; structural effects and modeling at all scales; repair and remedial measures; and combined mechanisms (e.g., DEF). The contributions, which were selected by means of a rigorous international peer-review process, present a wealth of exciting ideas that will open novel research directions and foster new multidisciplinary collaborations. Evaluation of the non-destructive character of the stiffness damage test for damage assessment of concrete structures affected by alkali-silica reaction using acoustic emission -- Effectiveness of non-destructive testing methods to assess concrete sleepers affected by internal swelling reactions (ISR) -- Monitoring of damage due to alkali silica reaction in concrete at different temperatures by using non-destructive testing methods -- Efficiency of the dynamic resonance frequency in assessing ASR induced damage at numerous exposure conditions -- Assessment of ASR-induced expansion and deterioration in conventional concrete incorporating a highly reactive coarse aggregate via resonant ultrasound spectroscopy coupled with imaging techniques -- Measuring alkali-silica reaction expansion in concrete with optical fiber sensors -- ASR-induced damage detected by site air-permeability tests -- Damage quantification through digital images of cracked concrete surfaces presenting anisotropic behaviour. edited by Leandro F.M.
