The reasonable wet and dry accelerate system is selected. 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 cycles of wet and dry cycling are made to concrete after freeze-thaw cycling. The degeneration law of the concrete elastic modulus and compressive strength is studied. The Ottosen tri-axial strength criterion considering cycles of freeze-thaw and wet and dry cycling is deduced based on uniaxial mechanical properties of concrete and damage theory. Experimental results show that with the increase in the number of wet and dry cycles and freeze-thaw cycles, the concrete axial compressive strength and the elastic modulus decline gradually. Tensile and compressive meridians of concrete shrink gradually. The research can be referenced for anti-crack design of actual structures eroded by seawater at cold regions.展开更多
