[en] Internal sulfate attack can be caused by the gypsum residues present in fine recycled aggregates (FRA). Asopposed to the better known external sulfate attack or Delayed Ettringite Formation (DEF), the sulfates inthis context are provided by a gypsum contamination of the aggregates. Mortars made with contami-nated FRA were subjected to different conditions, to assess which parameters had an influence on the sul-fate attack reaction. Their mechanical properties and microstructure are investigated. Results showedthat gypsum content, porosity, temperature and alkalinity influenced the consequences of sulfate attack.However, the gypsum size distribution and cement type did not.
