Abstract: Freeze-thaw failure is the main damage mechanism for concrete in cold regions. Revealing the freeze-thaw damage process and damage mechanism, and proposing the service life prediction method of concrete exposed to freeze thaw cycles are of great significance. In this paper, the freeze-thaw damage mechanism of concrete is reviewed in terms of water freezing and salt freezing according to the damage characteristics. Then, the freeze-thaw damage mechanism of concrete in plateau region and the influence of low air pressure on the damage of concrete are analyzed. The service life prediction of concrete in freeze-thaw environment is summarized by means of experimental study and numerical simulation. The pros and cons of the two life prediction methods are discussed, aiming to provide some references for the design of concrete structure in cold regions.
