Main publication details
MARC recordHot sand for improved traction on icy roads / Matthew K. Reckard.
| Title: | Hot sand for improved traction on icy roads / Matthew K. Reckard. |
| Author(s): | Reckard, Matthew K. |
| Date: | 1986. |
| Publisher: | New York: American Society of Civil Engineers |
| In: | Cold Regions Engineering. Proceedings of the Fourth International Conference..., Anchorage, Alaska, February 24-26, 1986. (1986.), |
| Abstract: | Tests showed that sand preheated to 82°C improved friction values. Sand penetrates cold ice surface by melting and then freezes in place, leaving gritty surface. Field trials in Alaska planned. |
| Notes: | In: Cold Regions Engineering. Proceedings of the Fourth International Conference..., Anchorage, Alaska, February 24-26, 1986 / William L. Ryan, ed. |
| Keywords: | 624.144.8 -- Skidding and slipping on snow and ice, prevention. 625.7 -- Road construction and maintenance. E12 -- Glaciology: frozen ground / snow and ice engineering. |
