Title: | A case study of potential causes of frost heave / Karen S. Henry. |
Author(s): | Henry, Karen S. |
Date: | 1990. |
In: | CRREL Special Report. (1990.), Vol. 90-9 (1990) |
Abstract: | During winter 1985-86, investigations into causes of frost heave at Ravalli County Airport, Hamilton, MT, were made by determining frost susceptibilities and hydraulic properties of soil at airport.
