Freeze-thaw durability of concrete : proceedings of the International Workshop in the Resistance of Concrete to Scaling Due to Freezing in the Prsence of De-icing Salts, Sainte-Foy, Québec, Canada : papers from the International Workshop on Freeze-Thaw and De-icing Resistance of Concrete, Lund, Sweden

Concrete durability in climates where freezing and thawing occurs is a continuing problem. It is particularly acute for highway and bridge structures, where de-icing salts are used to combat the effects of frost, snow and ice. These salts can cause damage to concrete and accelerate corrosion of reinforcements. This book presents the latest international research on this area, with contributions from North America and Europe which were presented at an international RILEM workshop.
