5. Frost Heaving of Pilings, Alaska Science Forum
- www.gi.alaska.edu
- Frost Heaving of Pilings.
- Several factors control the amount of frost heaving and the consequent lifting force on a piling.
- Frost heaving is greatest in wet, fine-grained soils--clays and silts--since they undergo the greatest expansion of their volume as they freeze. ...
- Consequently, frost heaving can continue right on through the winter if there is an adequate supply of water from below.
- Upward frost heaving pressure on the bottom of a piling set in wet, fine-grained soil can easily be 60 pounds per square inch (4 kilograms per square centimeter). ...
- In one year, a piling may be lifted upward a foot (25 centimeters) or more, though in most instances the heaving is less. If conditions are favorable to continued heaving year after year--repeated freezing and thawing of the soil wherein the piling is set plus plenty of available ground water--the piling eventually will be lifted entirely out of the ground. ...
