The neutral water (pH 7) causes the least reduction (24–27%) of the ultimate compressive strength of granite. However, this reduction will increase with the increase of acidic or alkaline degree of the solution, to about 67% at pH 2 and about 72% at pH 12. The exact reductions will be controlled by cations and anions and their ionic ...
