Abstract

The basic mechanical properties of concrete under low temperature are important for cold regions engineering. The results of a series of laboratory studies on selected mechanical properties of normal and high-strength concrete in the temperature range of +20°C to -70°C (+68°F to -94°F). Test results show that concrete compressive, local bond, and splitting tensile strength, Young's modulus, and Poisson's ratio increase as the temperature decreases, and the rate of increase for high-strength concrete at different corresponding low temperature is generally lower than that for normal strength concrete.
