Closure to “<i>Piles in Permafrost</i>” by Andrew G. Heydinger (June 1987, Vol. 1, No. 2)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988) -
High‐Strength Concrete‐Steel Bond Behavior at Low Temperature
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)Laboratory experiments on the local bond behavior of high‐strength concrete were carried out under monotonic, repeated cyclic and reversed cyclic loading conditions in the temperature range of -
Mechanical Properties of High‐Strength Concrete at Low Temperature
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)High‐strength concrete has been used extensively in high‐rise buildings and long‐span bridges. However, very little is known regarding its mechanical properties at low temperature. This paper presents the results of an ... -
Discussion of “<i>Piles in Permafrost</i>” by Andrew G. Heydinger (June 1987, Vol. 1, No. 2)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988) -
Structural Fiber Composite Materials for Cold Regions
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)Fiber composites are an attractive class of materials for construction in the remote and desolate terrains of cold regions and the Arctic. Data on the cold weather performance of these materials is sparse. High residual ... -
Double‐Diffusive Convection under Sea Ice
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)It is shown that conditions underneath freezing or melting sea ice may be established which are favorable for double-diffusive convection. Salt fingers are possible when the ice cover is growing, while the overstable mode ... -
Effects of Low Temperature on Physicochemical Processes in Water Quality Control
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)LOW temperature has significant effects on many processes of water and wastewater treatment systems. Practically all operations and processes are affected by low temperature through viscosity changes in the water or changes ... -
Thermal Performance Degradation of Wet Insulations in Cold Regions
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)The detrimental effects of moisture accumulation in building insulation are studied for four commonly used insulation materials. The thermal conductivity at different moisture levels and at various temperature gradients ... -
Design Approach for Piles Subject to Ice Jacking
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)The uplifting of marina piles clue to a process known as ice jacking (cyclic incremental pullout of the pile by an ice sheet) is a widespread phenomena in many large bodies of water in northern regions. An effort has been ... -
New Construction Material for Offshore Application
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)Offshore islands and structures require protection from wave and ice erosion. Protection has been traditionally provided by sandbags, concrete mats, or quarried rock. The results of a research program are presented in which ... -
Volume Change Behavior of Frozen Sands
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)A series of triaxial compression tests with volume change measurements are performed with the objective of investigating the behavior mechanisms controlling the volume change during deformation. The volume changes are ... -
Application of Fracture Mechanics to Ice/Structure Interactions
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)The brittle nature of ice, particularly at high strain rates, suggests that fracture mechanics may be a suitable tool for modeling ice/structure interactions. However, tests on polycrystalline randomly oriented freshwater ... -
Mechanical Properties of Concrete at Low Temperature
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988)Laboratory studies were conducted on concrete compressive and splitting tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, and Poisson's ratio and on the local bond strength between concrete and steel under both monotonic and cyclic ... -
Erratum: “Eosynthetic Supporting Embankments Over Voids” by Thomas C. Kinney and Billy Connor (Dec., 1987, Vol. 1, No. 4)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1988) -
Local Melting of Ice Cover by Thermal Side Effluent
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1987)In northern rivers, reaches of open water in the ice cover may exist throughout the winter season. Some of these reaches are the result of a tributary effluent of higher temperature or of fast‐moving water that alter the ... -
Geosynthetics Supporting Embankments Over Voids
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1987)Geosynthetics can be used to support road embankments over voids. This report briefly summarizes a mathematical model developed to design such a system and presents the results of a series of field tests performed to verify ... -
Design/Construction Considerations for Subarctic Wastewater Plant
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1987)In 1983, CH2M HILL was named design/construction manager for a $35‐million project to expand Anchorage's wastewater treatment plant. The project will double the size of the Anchorage Water and Wastewater Utility's existing ... -
Ice Transport by Wind, Wave, and Currents
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1987)Theoretical and experimental investigations of the transport of an isolated ice floe by wind, wave, and drift currents are made for the case in which the length of the floe is much longer than that of the winter waves. A ... -
Piles in Permafrost
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1987)Piles have been installed in permafrost in the northern hemisphere for various engineering purposes. To date, there is a large amount of published information on piles in permafrost which has led to accepted design practices. ...
