'Sulphate-bearing hardcore' it says he
http://www.cpservicesuk.com/red-ash-...--removal.html
The sulphate reacts with the overlying concrete screed, causing the
latter to expand, bulge and crack. A problem common in coal mining
areas, apparently. Although why it's called 'red ash' isn't explained.

When colliery waste tips caught fire, they burned for years.
The resulting ash was red and used as aggregate for all sorts of things when the tip burned itself out.
Mostly in the 1960's

Wasn't aware it caused problems.
Have to do some research.

As yongster we had 2 tips near us that we used to play on.
One was known as the blacky bing and the other as the red bing. (obvious
why) The red bing smoulderd for years until they eventually dismantled
it and used it for building roads that would have been in the 60s 70s.

€œit should be clear by now to everyone that activist environmentalism
(or environmental activism) is becoming a general ideology about humans,
about their freedom, about the relationship between the individual and
the state, and about the manipulation of people under the guise of a
'noble' idea. It is not an honest pursuit of 'sustainable development,'
a matter of elementary environmental protection, or a search for
rational mechanisms designed to achieve a healthy environment. Yet
things do occur that make you shake your head and remind yourself that
you live neither in Joseph Stalins Communist era, nor in the Orwellian
utopia of 1984.€

Red Ash is burnt out coal spoil waste. Its found in the middle of coal mine slag heaps. It was used to fill in the middle of houses to bring the floor level up then a concrete screed lay on top. It was found that some of the acids in the ash caused the screed to disintegrate.

we mostly had suspended timber floors up here ...but due to access
requirements English style concrete ground floors are more prevalent
these days ...

Indeed. Suphurous coal will in addition to meiting Sulphur oxides make
certain sulhur style comounds with te dah, taht can turn to sulphuhuric
acid when wet.

Turning cement from insoluble carbonates to soluble sulphates over time.
Same as brick acid.
