Insulated and improved subgrades for eliminating frost heave
Problem of frost heave and how to eliminate it was investigated in tests performed at Anchorage International Airport in Alaska; special section of pavement was constructed and used to evaluate effectiveness of insulating silt subgrade against freezing temperatures, and of eliminating frost susceptible soil; results of tests showed that styrofoam effectively insulated subbase against sub-freezing temperatures.
