Uplift of objects by an upfreezing ice surface

Laboratory and field experiments show that many kinds of solid objects are readily uplifted by an upfreezing ice surface and that uplift pressures can approximate the heaving pressures for soils with similar pore sizes. Uplift can be explained by ice-segregation theory. Frost heave by ice segregatio...
