Abstract A site investigation was made on one deteriorated concrete with 6 year
s age,and this concrete component was located in one tunnel of one concrete dam
in Western China.Some samples were taken from the attacked concrete and were a
nalyzed with XRD,SEM-EDAX and Laser Raman Spectroscopy methods.As a result,it
is shown that a mushy mixture consisting of thaumasite,ettringite,gypsum and
calcite occurs in the residual concrete exposed to low temperature,high humidit
y,sulfate and carbonate for a long time.It is validated that the thaumasite fo
rm of sulfate attack may occur in hydraulic concrete structures in Western China
.In addition,the corrosion mechanism is also discussed.
