Abstract
The results of concrete tests on cements with mineral additives indicate that, despite better tightness and higher strength, there are problems with frost resistance of non-aerated concretes, even under conditions of moderate exposure to frost. In order to minimize problems with obtaining frost-resistant concrete, an attempt was made to create air-entraining cement. In this paper are presented frost resistance of concrete with air-entraining cement. The researches were carried for concretes made of multicomponent Portland, metallurgical and multi-component cements additionally differentiated by the type of air-entraining admixture (synthetic and natural) and the method of cement preparation (cement mixed together, common ground cement). There were tested internal frost resistance of concrete and a salt frost scaling of concrete.
