Engineered cementitious composites (ECCs) exhibit superior mechanical properties (MPs) and excellent crack control capabilities, making them widely used in practical engineering applications. However, the MPs of ECCs in frozen states (FSs), particularly their flexural properties (FPs), still need to be better understood. MP tests were designed for frozen ECC samples to investigate the service performance of ECCs in an FS. The samples underwent 0 to 300 freeze–thaw cycles (FTs), followed by compressive and flexural tests at a constant freezing temperature of −18 °C. The compressive properties (CPs) and FPs of the samples and their influencing mechanisms were analyzed. Based on this analysis, a life prediction model (LPM) for freeze–thaw-damaged (FTD) ECCs was established using the entropy weight method and the GM(1,1) model to predict the durability changes of ECCs in FS. The results indicate that with an increasing number of FTs, the uniaxial compressive strength (CS), elastic modulus (E), initial crack strength, and ultimate strength of ECCs in the FS are higher than those in the thawed state (TS), with a notable increase in brittleness at ultimate failure. The overall stiffness of the specimens increased under high FTs. The established model effectively predicts the durability changes of ECCs in the FS.

This study investigated the effects of calcium carbide slag (CCS) (0–12 wt%) incorporation on the workability, electrochemical properties, durability, and microstructure evolution of sulfoaluminate cement (SAC) mortar. Results showed that increasing CCS content reduced mortar fluidity and shortened setting time, indicating that CCS accelerates early hydration. A 9% CCS content was determined to be the optimal dosage; at 28 days, compared to the control group, this dosage group exhibited a 6.53% increase in compressive strength, a 22.47% decrease in drying shrinkage, and a 0.279% decrease in mass loss. These performance improvements stemmed from CCS’s ability to inhibit pore connectivity and limit moisture migration. Electrochemical analysis further revealed that the 9% CCS dosage group had the highest charge transfer resistance and resistivity (30.00% higher than the control group), reflecting a denser matrix and greater ion transport resistance. Consequently, chloride ion permeability was significantly reduced, with electrical flux and diffusion coefficient decreasing by 39.98% and 28.89%, respectively. Microstructural observations confirmed that CCS promotes the formation and densification of hydration products, effectively improving the internal pore structure. While 9% CCS can serve as an effective functional supplementary material, its long-term durability and sustainability still face practical application challenges. Future research should focus on establishing predictive models for chloride ion permeation lifetime and conducting quantitative sustainability assessments of CCS-SAC composites, particularly evaluating material cost, energy consumption, and carbon dioxide emissions.
