• Abstract:
  Research performed to evaluate the protection against freeze-thaw scaling offered by various surface coatings of materials is reported. The phase covering penetrants, tars, and asphalts which has been completed is covered in this report; other work on the project continues. Laboratory freeze-thaw tests were made on 10" square plain concrete blocks 2" thick with a 5% saltwater solution ponded on the top surface. The surfaces in contact with the brine were treated with various materials to prevent the brine from entering the concrete and destroying it in freeze-thaw action. Scaling of the surface under freeze-thaw cycling was periodically inspected and rated according to the extent of scaling.
