The protection period is defined as the amount of time recommend

31、ed to prevent concrete from being adversely affected by exposure to cold weather during construction. Concrete placed during cold weather will develop sufficient strength and durability to satisfy the intended service recommendations when it is properly proportioned, produced, placed, and protected.

32、 The necessary degree of protection increases as the ambient temperature decreases.Take advantage of the opportunity provided by cold weather to place low-temperature concrete. Concrete placed during cold weather, protected against freezing, and prop-erly cured for a sufficient length of time, has t

33、he potential to develop higher ultimate strength (Klieger 1958) and greater durability than concrete placed at higher temperatures. It is susceptible to less thermal cracking than similar concrete placed at higher temperatures.Refer to ACI 306.1 for cold weather concreting require-ments in a specifi

46、ther concreting practices are to:(a) Prevent damage to concrete due to early-age freezing. When no external water is available, the degree of saturation of newly placed concrete decreases as the concrete matures and the mixing water combines with cement during hydra-tion. Additionally, mixing water

47、is lost to evaporation even at cold temperatures. Under such conditions, the degree of saturation falls below the critical saturation. Critical satura-tion is the level at which a single cycle of freezing can cause damage. The degree of saturation falls below critical satura-tion at the approximate

48、time the concrete attains a compres-sive strength of 500 psi (3.5 MPa) (Powers 1962). At 50F (10C), most well-proportioned concrete mixtures reach this strength within 48 hours. The temperature of concrete is measured in accordance with ASTM C1064/C1064M.(b) Ensure that the concrete develops the req

49、uired strength for safe removal of forms, shores, and reshores, and for safe loading of the structure during and after construction.(c) Maintain curing conditions that promote strength devel-opment without exceeding the recommended concrete temper-atures in Table 5.1 by more than 20F (7C) and without using water curing, which may cause critical saturation at the end of the protection period, thus reducing resistance to freezing and thawing when protection is removed (5.1).
