On codification of concrete frost resistance in foreign and domestic practice

Abstract

The paper is a review of requirements and recommendations for testing methods and ensuring frost resistance of concrete, covering data from more than 70 standards, regulatory and advisory documents. The choice of documents in the article is limited to standards and recommendations from the United States (ACI, AASHTO, ASTM), Canada (CSA, BNQ), Norway (NS-EN), Sweden (SS, SIS), Denmark (DS), Germany (DIN, ZTV, BAW), Japan (JIS), China (GB/T), and Russia (SP, GOST, SNiP), i.e. from the countries most often faced with problems of frost damage of structures. It is shown that a detailed analysis of the data and approaches accumulated in the world construction practice is required, further researches are needed to establish the correlation and relationships between different methods, taking into account different concrete compositions, the type and size of samples, freezing and thawing modes, correlation of the results of field and laboratory tests.
