Study on freeze-thaw damage of surface and pore structure of steam cured concrete by Jialin Chen, Zhifan He, Shoukai Chen, Phu Minh Vuong Nguyen, Jinping Liu, Haoke Xu

“…This study aims to investigate and provide a better understanding of the surface damage pattern and pore structure of SCC. In this paper, a 3D scanner was used to scan the surface topography of SCC under five conditions of F-T (the number of F-T was 0, 50, 100, 150, and 200 respectively), and the spatial distribution of point cloud data generated by scanning results was analyzed, and surface roughness was introduced to quantify the damage effect of F-T cycle on the surface of SCC. …”
