Dependence of Freezing Soil Heaving Properties on the Degree and Composition of Salinization

  • EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATIONS
  • Published:
Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Aims and scope

This research presents the experimental data on physical modeling of cryogenic heaving of saline soils under laboratory conditions in the external mass transfer and isothermal temperature mode. This paper also reports the regularities of frost heaving of sandy and clayey soils salinized with sodium chloride and sodium sulfate. The mechanism of the development of cryogenic heaving of saline soils is presented.
