Abstract

Concrete parking slab is often deteriorated severely after winter season because of concrete's freezing and thawing phenomenon. In this study, some methods to improve resistance against freezing-thawing is experimentally tested.: 1) concrete strength, 2) air content in concrete, 3) saw-cut effect and finish material. After experiment, in case of no finishes, 24MPa concrete with 4% air content is tested best result in terms of relative elastics modulus among testes ones. In case of concrete with finishes, all specimens are improved regardless of finishes compared to concrete with no finishes. Improvement degree compared to no finish is as follows : Polyurea > Resin-mortar > hardener and the number of improvement degree is 5, 4, 2% respectively. Further work is required considering construction site condition such as gaining water on surface and remicon in order to reflect site condition.
