Snow Ice Strength
Snow Ice Strength
(OP)
I am trying to figure out torque required to actuate a damper against ice-built up of 6 in on the blades.
Does anyone know where to find snow ice mechanical strength properties (tensile and shear strength) ?
Thanks,
StressStrain

RE: Snow Ice Strength
or is ice formed form indoor humid air creeping to the damper?

We are concerned about damper operating to break the ice blocking the vanes. Using heat tapes is not an option because this damper has to operate in case of a power failure.
Knowing that ice strength varies widely based on the kind of ice built-up, I am looking for strength of rime ice.
