Laboratory Measurements of Ice-Concrete Abrasion with Different Types of Ice Quality
Ice-concrete abrasion has been investigated by review of lab- and field studies and by laboratory testing. The specific objective of this thesis has been to investigate the possible effects of different ice qualities on laboratory ice-concrete abrasion tests. This has been done by altering the ice p...
