As a result, the climate characteristics were classified into three types, climate characteristics and construction characteristics of each region were arranged. The climate characteristics of Japan are remarkably different depending on the region, and regional differences are confirmed in the planning method adopted also in the past questionnaire survey. In order to further enhance Recommendation for Practice of Cold Weather Concreting, it is necessary to develop a rational planning method that takes full account of climate characteristics.
