Abstract: A design approach is presented to analyze laterally loaded piles embedded in layered frozen soil. The design approach makes use of a commercially available computer solution that uses p‐y curves to model soil and pile ...

Abstract: This paper presents a design approach to analyze the effects of lateral loads on piles embedded in a layered frozen soil profile. This design approach makes use of a commercially available computer program that uses

Abstract: In fill that is frozen, ice acts as a lightweight solid and occupies space that would otherwise be a void or filled with soil particles. Therefore, a fill's dry density (density of solid particles) will decrease as ice ...

Abstract: The peat assessed in this study is Sphagnum moss that formed during the Holocene in wetland bogs around Anchorage, Alaska. Undisturbed peat in these bogs has a water content that ranges from 400 to 1,000% and averages 620%. ...
