STUDIES OF FROST PROBLEMS IN A NORTHERN STATE
A REVIEW IS MADE OF MINNESOTA'S HISTORY OF FROST STUDIES THICKNESS OF FLEXIBLE PAVEMENTS IN MINNESOTA WAS SHOWN TO INDICATE REQUIREMENTS IN THE FROST AREA. THE LABORATORY STUDIES FOR DETERMINATION OF THERMAL PROPERTIES OF SOILS ARE DESCRIBED. METHODS ARE PRESENTED FOR CALCULATING FROST PENETRATION IN HIGHWAYS AND FIELD MEASUREMENTS FOR COMPARISON WITH CALCULATIONS.
