Variation of Physico-Mechanical Properties of Soils Under the Action of Cyclic Freeze-Thaw (Izmeneniya Fiziko-Mekhanicheskikh Svoistv Gruntov Pod Diestviem Promerzaniya i Posleduyushchego Ottaivaniya),
Abstract
For solving many questions in engineering practice, i.e. the building and operation of various structures and also for investigating such natural phenomena as frost erosion, shore dynamics, etc., a study of the variations in the physico-mechanical properties of the soils subjected to freeze-thaw cycles has very great significance. The experimental study had the purpose of clarifying the essential tendencies in the variations of certain physico-mechanical properties of soils (resistance to shear and compressibility) under the effect of a freeze-thaw cycle with allowance for the influence of the most significant factors, primarily, of their structure.
