When fresh concrete is exposed to low temperature, the concrete may suffer frost damage due to freezing at early ages and strength development may be delayed. One of the solution methods to resolve these problems is to lower freezing temperature of concrete by the use of chemical admixture called Accelerators for Freeze Protection. In this study, it was the results of appling cold weather concrete using Accelerator for Freeze Protection in the Daewoo Trump world field. Before the application of the cold weather concrete using accelerator for freeze protection, we executed the some test in the laboratory and mock-up test in the field. We examined the manifestation of compressive strength complying with the amount of Accelerators for Freeze Protection and curing conditions, and then made a selection of most suitable amount of Accelerators for Freeze Protection.

This study is to investigate the temperature hysteresis and development of compressive strength due to the curing conditions and to evaluate the optimum curing condition of test specimens showing the same development of strength to that of real structures in cold weather. The results of temperature curve with curing conditions in mock-up tests showed the trend of decrease plain concrete with insulation form, plain concrete with heating, concrete with accelerator for freeze protection, and control concrete in turn. The strength development of plain concrete of inside and outside of shelter showed the very slow strength gains due to early freezing, but that of concrete with accelerator for freeze protection showed the gradual increase of strength with time. From this, it is clear that accelerator for freeze protection has the effects of refusing the freezing temperature and accelerating the hardening under low temperature. Strength test results of small specimens embedded in members and located in insulation boxes at the site are similar to that of cores drilled from the members at the same ages, thus it is clear that these curing methods are effective for evaluating in-place concrete strength

When fresh concrete is exposed to low temperature, the concrete may suffer frost damage due to freezing at early ages and the strength development may be delayed. One of the solution methods to resolve these problems is to reduce freezing temperature of concrete by the use of chemical admixture called Accelerator for freeze protection. In this study we Investigate the effect on the strength development of cement mortar using accelerator for freeze protection with the variable curing condition. As the result of this study, the mortar using accelerator for freeze protection show continuously the strength development in curing condition of -5$^{\circ}C$. And the compressive strength under variable temperature condition was higher than constant temperature condition in same maturity.

In order to examine the possibility of practical use of concrete at low-temperature environment using high early strength cement with cold resistance admixture, an experimental study on workability, freezing temperature and compressive strength of the mortar with different types of anti-freezer, water reducing agent and accelerator for freeze protection at low-temperature were evaluated. Compressive strength was increased in use of anti-freezer, especially SN anti-freezer was higher than CN anti-freezer. 0min flow was increased, the 20min flow was decreased. And 20min flow was improved in use of FR, RT water reducing agent. CF, LS accelerator for freeze protection, regardless of the type of water reducing agent, compressive strength was increased.

In this study, the experimental study on the early age compressive strength of cement mortar using anti freezer and hardening accelerator at low temperature was conducted. For this study, all of materials for experiment were kept in a low temperature for 24 hours before mortar mixing. After mortar curing at low temperature, compressive strength was measured at the early ages. Furthermore, properties of hardened cement material was analysed using TG-DTA and MIP.

In this study, the results of applying cold weather concreting mixed with Accelerator for Freeze Protection(AFP) to full scale structures are presented. Since the determination of W/C and amount of AFP significantly have an effect on strength gain and protection of frost damage in early, a full investigation is needed to determine these values at stage of nux design. The flowability of fresh cold weather concreting with AFP was similar to the same W/C. Lower loss of workability and initial slump flow of concrete using superplasticizer of polycarboxylic ester than that of melamine sulphonate showed that polycarboxylic ester was more effective on elapsed time. Temperature histories of specimens located in insulation boxes at the site was similar to that of structures. Thus, it is cleared that simple adiabatic curing method is effective for evaluating in-place concrete strength than specimens cured by sealing method. The investigation results of development of compressive strength of cold weather concreting included AFP with curing methods by logistic curves indicated that AFP can be effective to gain strength at lower temperature than normal curing temperature. In field testing, vinyl sheets were placed over the concrete sections and AFP enabled concrete to gain $5N/{mm}^2$ to protect frost damage in early ages and specified compressive strength of concrete at 28 days under average temperature of $-2^{\circ}C$ (lowest temperature was $-12^{\circ}C$) during site application.

The cold weather concrete poured in the winter season can cause the problem of the Due to recent high-rise building is made. In this research, the nominal mix of the early strength in concrete tried to be set through the mixing proportion experiment for each empirical variable and each component strength properties for the early strength improvement tries to be examined. In the cold weather concrete experiment, the cement and high early strength (type3) cement improving in OPC than OPC was excellent. The polycarboxylic acid based compound was exposed to be excellent in the intensity revelation properties. Because the using of the fly ash was disadvantageous it was excluded from this experiment. It showed the optimum temperature for the intensity revelation up over $12^{\circ}C$.
