Frost damage of concrete has significant effects on the safety and durability of concrete structures in cold regions, and the concrete structures after repair and reinforcement are still threatened by cyclic freezing and thawing. In this study, the new-to-old concrete interface was reinforced by steel bar. The shear strength of the new-to-old concrete interface was tested after the new-to-old combination was subjected to cyclic freeze–thaw. The effects of the diameter of the steel bar, the compressive strength of new concrete, the number of freeze–thaw cycles and the freezing temperatures on the shear properties of new-to-old concrete interface were studied. The results showed that, in a certain range, the shear strength of the interface was proportional to the diameter of the steel bar and the strength of the new concrete. Meanwhile, the shear strength of the reinforced interface decreased with the decreasing of the freezing temperature and the increasing of the number of freeze–thaw cycles.

Influence of permeated crystalline materials on durability of hydraulic concrete was studied by impermeability test methods after sulfate attack and freeze-thaw cycling. Microstructure of concrete was analyzed and characterized with SEM and MIP. The results showed that impermeability pressure of concrete with permeated crystalline materials was more than that of standard concrete after sulfate attack and freeze-thaw cycling. Permeated crystalline materials improved on performance of concrete for sulfate attack and freeze-thaw, because that microstructure of interfacial transition zone of concrete with permeated crystalline materials was compact and its pore size distribution was more than that of standard concrete. There were more content of less harmful pore with diameter 20nm~100nm and less content of harmful pore with diameter100nm~200nm and more than 200nm in concrete with permeated crystalline materials than in standard concrete.
