The results of CT test show that freeze-thaw cycle can accelerate the generation of cracks in concrete. In the C+S and C environments, the area and width of concrete cracks are larger than those in other two environments. Meanwhile, the crack width expansion rate in C environment is the fastest in all corrosive environments.
