This article presents the results of a part of investigation on the performance of cement-based mortars subjected to omnidirectional freezing and thawing tests. Microstructural changes due to exposure of up to 732 freezing and thawing cycles are documented on Ordinary Portland Cement mortar of varied maturity. The results yielded by the Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry are used to assess the alterations due to freezing and thawing when compared against corresponding samples cured in laboratory conditions. The representation of pore structure obtained in the investigation of mortars is intended to study the changes in pore structure due to frost deterioration.
