DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS FOR ROADWAYS ON PERMAFROST. FINAL REPORT

Numerous design conceptions and construction techniques regarding roadways on permafrost have been published recently. In addition to varying climatic factors, difficult subsurface conditions are encountered in permafrost environments. This design guide was prepared to include all aspects of permafrost engineering pertinent to roadways, to bridge the gap between the latest works and the design principles used previously.
