Abstract
Tangential frost heaving stress is the main force causing the frost jacking of pile foundation in frozen ground. It is of great engineering and scientific significance to measure the exact value of tangential frost heaving stress economically and quickly. In this study, a set of test equipment was designed and manufactured to measure the tangential frost heaving stress of steel pile in clay silt during freezing. At the same time, the soil temperature, vertical displacement and moisture content of the soil were measured. The results indicate that the measuring equipment is feasible, and a complete variation process of uplift force during the freezing-thawing cycle was obtained. In addition, some interesting phenomena were found in the tests, such as the slow reduction and rebound of the uplift force. Also, it was found that the water migrated horizontally to the pile during the freezing process, and the vertical ice films were formed in the soil around the pile.
期刊介绍:
Cold Regions Science and Technology is an international journal dealing with the science and technical problems of cold environments in both the polar regions and more temperate locations. It includes fundamental aspects of cryospheric sciences which have applications for cold regions problems as well as engineering topics which relate to the cryosphere.
Emphasis is given to applied science with broad coverage of the physical and mechanical aspects of ice (including glaciers and sea ice), snow and snow avalanches, ice-water systems, ice-bonded soils and permafrost.
Relevant aspects of Earth science, materials science, offshore and river ice engineering are also of primary interest. These include icing of ships and structures as well as trafficability in cold environments. Technological advances for cold regions in research, development, and engineering practice are relevant to the journal. Theoretical papers must include a detailed discussion of the potential application of the theory to address cold regions problems. The journal serves a wide range of specialists, providing a medium for interdisciplinary communication and a convenient source of reference.
