HC Deb 14 May 1985 vol 79 c73W
Dr. David Clark

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what is his estimate of the annual cost of damage to concrete structures in the United Kingdom as a result of alkaline aggregate reaction.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

No reliable estimate is available of the annual cost of damage to concrete structures in the United Kingdom as a result of alkali-aggregate reaction. To obtain such an estimate would require a survey of all concrete structures.
