1 Frost Protection for Roads and Railways Røros test site: 1 year of data NADim-seminar November 30, 2017 Benoit Loranger, PhD Candidate
2 Outline Introduction Frost Protection Layer Standard Røros experimental test site Results and discussion Conclusion 2
3 Introduction Frost Protection Project ( ) Frost heave problems (winters 2010 and 2011) Crushed rock material vs natural gravel? Segregation of the material? 3
4 Frost Protection Layer Prevent frost to penetrate in natural soil Maximum thickness of road: 1,8 m to 2,4 m Modified from Aksnes presentation,
5 Frost Protection Layer Material must be crushed in a controlled production. Materials up to half the thickness of the layer (never >500 mm). Material less than 90mm shall be at least 30%. Fines less than 0,063mm shall be 1-7% calculated from 90 mm. Grading uniformity coefficient Cu> = 5 (well graded). (from revised 2017 N200 design book) 5

22 1 year of data Does max thickness are enough Can better knowledge lead to better design? ($, z) Does material thermal properties are maximized? Water retention vs fine% Can cost production be optimized? Less thick layers -> less construction cost 22
23 23 Conclusions The test site is a good tool for investigating the standard assessment Data concerning frost penetration according grading, mineralogy and insulation in each sections make sense according to known theories. Contributive FI to go through FPL in Road section are higher than what expected in N200. The variation seems to be caused by the presence of water at the bottom of the layer. Contributive FI to go through the railway structure sections correspond quite well to standard evaluation. 23
24 24 Conclusions All sections of roads and railways with typical or coarse grading frost protection layer failed to prevent frost penetration inside the silt layer even with the help of water at the bottom of it FPL grading in Ro-2 and insulation material is preventing frost to reach the silt layer. Further development regarding design method is to be done. 24
