May 08, 2023
The BAW’s Code of Practice “Frost Resistance Tests for Concrete” describes methods of testing the
freeze-thaw resistance and freeze-thaw and de-icing agent resistance of concrete, sprayed mortar and
sprayed concrete. Standardized methods are not yet available for either of these tests.

The CIF test /1/ is to be used for testing the freeze-thaw resistance and the CDF test /2/ for testing the freeze-thaw and de-icing agent resistance. Both test methods have been published as RILEM Recommendations. The following test description is essentially an adaptation of the RILEM Recommendation for the CIF test /1/ which has been modified to take account of waterways engineering requirements
