SURFACE DAMAGE TO RIGID PAVEMENTS CAUSED BY DE-ICING SALTS. LABORATORY STUDY /IN FRENCH & DUTCH/

THE THERMAL SHOCK CAUSED BY THE APPLICATION OF DE-ICING SALTS CAN RESULT IN DAMAGE TO CONCRETE SURFACINGS. A LABORATORY TEST METHOD IS DESCRIBED WHICH CONSISTS OF APPLYING COLD BRINE TO A CONCRETE SURFACE, REPRODUCING THE THE SCALING OBSERVED ON ROAD SURFACES. TESTS WERE CARRIED OUT ON SAMPLES TAKEN FROM TRAFFICKED ROADS SOME OF WHICH HAD BEEN SUBJECTED TO THE ATTACK OF DE-ICING SALTS. /CRIC/FESR/ LCPC/A/RRL/
