Abstract

With the wide application of concrete materials, the problem of concrete property degradation caused by external environment condition has drawn the attention of civil engineers. In order to study the influence of environmental factors on the durability of normal strength concrete (NSC), three groups of tests are carried out in this paper, which are multi-salt and dry-wet cycles test, multi-salt and freezing-thawing cycles test, multi-salt freezing-thawing and dry-wet cycles test. Through comparing test results about the maximum cycle numbers, mass loss rate, and relative dynamic elastic modulus obtained from each kind of test, we can draw a conclusion that the serious degradation of NSC performance is the results of joint actions of multiple environmental factors, which should be considered in the design of concrete durability.
