Abstract
The frost durability of steel and carbon micro-fiber reinforced mortars was assessed. Tests of freezing and thawing and surface scaling were performed on the mortars. The effect of drying on the frost durability was also studied. The results show that the use of steel and particularly carbon microfibers improve the frost and deicer salt scaling resistance of mortars. The improvement is however in part due to the “air entrainment” properties of the micro-fibers.
