Experimental Study on Frost Resistance of Concrete in Seawater

Abstract:

The experiments of concrete in seawater under 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 freezing-thawing cycles were performed using fast freezing and thawing method. Appling large concrete static and dynamic triaxial test system, the influence of freezing and thawing cycles on compressive strength and strain at peak stress point of concrete in seawater were detected, and then simple mathematical expressions were established.
