Abstract Through using cube resisting compression test, fracture properties and micro-structure, the mechanical properties of high volume ground slag concrete under low temperature are studied in this paper. The results show that low temperature can improve the compressive strength of high volume ground slag concrete. And strength increased with the decreased of temperature. Low temperature can also improve the fracture energy and fracture toughness. Not only can ground slag reduce the content of calcium hydroxide in hardened cement paste, but ground slag can improve the compactness of hardened cement paste, reduce porosity and improve the strength of the interface.

Thermal deformation of concrete at low temperature expands from-20°C to-50°C and contracts from-30°C to-10°C. Based on previous studies, the paper tries to explain the deformaion trend by analyzing freezing point of bulk solution and pore solution in saturated hardened cement paste. The result shows that it is critical to thermal deformation of cement-based materials at low temperature that pore solution in the pores smaller than 8 nm freezes.
