The role of porosity in external sulphate attack

Design codes promote a limitation of permeability (indirectly of porosity) to reduce the sulphate ingress and improve the resistance of concrete and mortar to external sulphate attack (ESA). However, porosity could also have a positive effect on durability by generating additional space to accommoda...
