Although very sophisticated modern equipment is available to analyse the physical and chemical nature of aggregate, this is not a straightforward process. Care must be taken in the preparation of the samples, taking into account both the purpose of the examination and the method to be used. In order to realistically assess the likelihood that aggregate has, or may, result in expansion and/or concrete attack, more than one method may be necessary.
