Summary
The
Freeze-Thaw Cycle
is a
Natural Process
where water repeatedly freezes and thaws, causing

that can lead to the
Physical Weathering
of materials like rocks and pavement. This cycle is a critical factor in shaping landscapes and can significantly impact
Infrastructure Durability
in climates with
Fluctuating temperatures
around the
Freezing Point
.
