Original Abstract

The paper deals with a comparison and interpretation of results of frost resistance tests of concrete specimens taken from a structure and test specimens produced in a laboratory using plastic moulds. A concrete block had to be produced for the experiment to simulate a real structure. The concrete used for the production of this block was also used in a laboratory to produce the test specimens. Core samples were drilled out from the concrete block and were subsequently used to make sets of core specimens. The test specimens, which differed in size, shape and the production method in particular, were subjected to frost resistance tests. The output of the paper is both a comparison of the results obtained on individual types of test specimens and a recommendation on how to approach the determination of frost resistance of concrete in a structure.
