Concrete must be protected from freezing until it reaches a compressive strength of 500 psi. This usually occurs within the first 24 hours. Water expands 9% in volume when it freezes. The formation of ice crystals in the concrete will cause paste expansion that reduces the final strength of the concrete by up to 50%.
