Abstract In order to investigate the application of polymer-modified concrete suffering thermal fatigue loading, the mechanical properties of EVA-modified concrete under thermal-cooling cycling curing were investigated. The results show that EVA reduces the loss rate of the compressive strength and increases the ultimate tensile strength slightly under thermal-cooling cycling curing. EVA reduces the elastic modulus of concrete under normal curing, but the reduction effect of EVA on the elastic modulus under thermal-cooling cycling curing is lost. EVA decreases the crack resistance, but it also decreases the loss rate of crack resistance under thermal-cooling cycling curing.
