Mechanical Response and Interfacial Deterioration of Red Mud-Based Synthetic Sand Mortar Under Freeze–Thaw Cycles

Freeze–thaw resistance is important for the use of red mud-based synthetic sand in cold regions. Mortars containing synthetic, standard, and fluvial sand were compared at a nominal water-to-cement ratio of 0.50 and cement-to-sand mass ratio of 1:3. Strengths were measured at 3, 7...
