Freezing and Thawing Effects on Prestressed Concrete
Freeze and thaw tests were conducted on 48 specimens representing strength level s of 5, 000 psi and 3, 000 psi. Some of the beams with a 5, 000 psi strength were post-tensioned throughout the test. Significant improvement in the durability was found to result from post-tensioning of the beams. Post-tensioned concrete specimens made of a rich mix showed better durability than unstressed concrete made of the same mix and also better durability than unstressed concrete made of a leaner mix.
