JIS A 1435 Test Method for Freezing and Thawing Resistance of Exterior Materials of Buildings

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of JIS A 1435 standard. Due to the natural accumulation of water under pavements in the foundation and sub-base layers, the aggregate may eventually become saturated.

Then, with cycles of freezing and thawing, the cracking of concrete begins in the saturated aggregate under the slab and progresses upward until it reaches the wearing surface.

This problem can be mitigated either by choosing aggregates that perform better in freeze-thaw cycles or by reducing the maximum particle size where marginal aggregates must be used. It can also help to install effective drainage systems to carry free water under the pavement.

Cold weather and winter conditions can be difficult when fly ash is present in concrete. Especially when used at higher levels, fly ash concrete typically has prolonged setting time and slow strength gain, resulting in low early age strengths and construction speed delays.
