Phase change materials (PCM) can be used in passive building applications to
achieve near zero energy building goals. For this purpose PCM can be added in building
structures and materials in different forms. Direct incorporation, form stabilization and
microencapsulation are different forms used for PCM integration in building materials. In
addition to thermal properties of PCM itself, there are several other criteria that need to be
fulfilled for the PCM enhanced building materials. Mechanical properties, corrosive effects,
morphology and thermal buffering have to be determined for reliable and long-term
applications in buildings. This paper aims to give an overview of characterization methods
used to determine these properties in PCM added fresh concrete mixes. Thermal, compressive
strength, corrosion, and microscopic test results for concrete mixes with PCM are discussed.
