In view of the face cracking of a CFRD during construction in cold regions, the structural deformation, temperature variation, hydration temperature rise and its own shrinkage were analyzed with an actual project based on prototype monitoring. It is found that the highest value of the hydration temperature rise and the maximum temperature difference in the later cooling is the main factor affecting the temperature difference of cumulative cooling. When the temperature difference of the cumulative cooling is larger, the temperature stress may exceed the tensile strength of the panel concrete, causing panel cracking. Suggestions for avoiding temperature cracks were put forward for construction projects with larger annual temperature difference and higher hydration temperature during the concrete pouring period, such as optimizing the concrete mix ratio, optimizing the construction process and improving concrete crack resistance.
