This state-of-the-practice report on the design and development of roads and airfields is the eighth monograph in a series prepared by the Technical Council on Cold Regions Engineering of the American Society of Civil Engineers. Previous reports in the series covered such topics as frost action and its control embankment design, and arctic coastal processes. This book discusses such topics as: 1) Route-location/siting; 2) frost action; 3) design for permafrost conditions; 4) low temperature cracking; 5) maintenance; 6) use of geosynthetics; and 7) materials specifications and testing. This monograph contributes a substantial amount of new material to the Cold Regions Engineering series.
This publication provides introductory technical guidance for civil engineers and other professional engineers and construction managers interested in design and construction of roads in cold regions. Here is what is discussed: 1. GENERAL, 2. BASE COURSE AND PAVEMENT COMPOSITION, 3. BASE COURSE DESIGN IN AREAS OF NON-FROST- SUSCEPTIBLE SOILS, 4. BASE COURSE DESIGN IN AREAS OF FROST-SUSCEPTIBLIE SUBGRADES, 5. BASE COURSE DESIGN IN AREAS OF HIGHLY ORGANIC SOILS DRAINAGE, 6. CORDUROY ROADS, 7. BIBLIOGRAPHY.

Consists of papers presented at the Cold Regions Engineering Specialty Conference held in 1991. The papers cover different subject areas of cold regions engineering, such as: frozen soil mechanics, frost action, sanitary engineering, building construction, river ice hydraulics, roads/airfields, cold regions instrumentation, and drifting snow.
