Abstract:

Frost depth is an essential factor in design of various transportation infrastructures. In frost

susceptible soils, as soils freezes, water migrates through the soil voids below the freezing line

towards the freezing front and causes excessive heave. The excessive heave can cause instability

issues in the structure, therefore predicting the frost depth and resulting frost heave accurately can

play a major role in the design. The objectives of this study are to develop accurate and reliable

models for predicting frost depths and frost heave and to estimate the resulting heave pressure. The

frost depth model was developed and verified using data from MDOT and Minnesota DOT. The frost

heave model was also developed and verified using the available MDOT data.
