Determination of Some Frozen and Thawed Properties of Permafrost Soils
Mackenzie Valley Pipe Line Research Limited has undertaken a significant amount of full-scale testing at its test site near Inuvik, N.W.T. Large diameter high ice content permafrost core samples were taken from this site to controlled laboratory conditions, and tested in both frozen and thawed state...
