PILES IN FROST SUSCEPTIBLE SOIL OUGHT TO BE ANCHORED

PILARER I TELEFARLIG FRUNN BOR FORANKRES

During frost periods large heave forces may be transferred by the soil freezing to piles installed in dry crust clays and anchoring may be necessary. Bitumen and epoxy resin applied on the surface of the piles may reduce the freezing forces. The article discusses the results of field tests on piles with different surface coatings. /TRRL/
