Frost action and foundations
The relationship between climate, seasonal frost penetration and permafrost is discussed in relation to construction activities. The nature of the ground thermal regime, the mechanism of frost heaving, and the criteria for frost susceptibility of earth materials are outlined. Practical examples rela...
