I am under the impression that freeze depth in a concrete slab is greater than in soil as BigInch explained.
But does anyone know what formula can be used to show this?
Berggren equation for frost depth asks for volumetric latent heat which relates to soil properties of dry unit weight of the...
How do I calculate the frost depth in a concrete slab? What formula should i use?
I am working in an area where typical frost depth is around 6 feet. But as concrete is a worse insulator than typical soils, is the frost depth greater? how do i calculate this?
We have a 2m thick reinforced...
