Investigation on mechanical properties deterioration of concrete subjected to freeze–thaw cycles

Abstract Concrete structures in cold regions are usually suffer from froze and thaw action. A combined investigation of nanoindentation technique and X-ray diffraction were adopted to demonstrate the microstructure change and micromechanical properties deterioration of concrete subjected to freeze–t...
