    Pile Depth and Frost Heaving

    Thanks, CarlB. I've come across that paper before. It's interesting, but it's conclusion leaves me in a tough spot: It seems to state that (and I'm paraphrasing) "there are two approaches to designing for frost heave, and while one is more economical than the other, it doesn't always apply and...

    Hello, I have a lightweight structure supported by multiple H-piles, and I'm trying to quantify the frost heaving force on an H-pile. I know there's very limited research on this topic, but I was wondering if anyone knows (or knows a geotechnical engineer who knows) how to quantitatively design...
