Frost Action in Soil Foundations and Control of Surface Structure Heaving
This is a report on frost action in soil foundations that may influence the performance of irrigation structures. The report provides background information and serves as a general guide for design, construction, and operation and maintenance. It also includes information on the mechanics of frost action, field and laboratory investigations of potential frost problems, case histories of frost damage to hydraulic structures, and measures to control detrimental freezing to avoid damage. The structures mentioned include earth embankment dams with appurtenant structures, canals with linings, and various other concrete canal structures.
