Degradation of Mechanical Behavior of Sandstone under Freeze-Thaw Conditions with Different Low Temperatures

This study investigated the effects of freezing temperature under freeze-thaw cycling conditions on the mechanical behavior of sandstone. First, the sandstone specimens were subjected to 10-time freeze-thaw cycling treatments at different freezing temperatures (−20, −40, −50, and −60 °C). Subsequent...
