Tassement et consolidation au dégel d'un silt argileux à Kangiqsualujjuaq
The physical characteristics, the compressibility, and the consolidation of a permafrost clayey silt of Kangiqsualujjuaq, Quebec, have been studied, in the laboratory and in the field, by melting the permafrost in the foundation of an excavation. It appears that the values of the thawing settlement...
