The article provides the analysis of the results of the permafrost soils field and laboratory tests. The undisturbed permafrost samples were collected using cone penetration testing (CPT) equipment and MOSTAP sampler. The sampling technology using CPT equipment was applied on permafrost soils for the first time. The full scope of tests for physical properties were carried out on the collected samples. Based on the test results, several engineering-geological elements (EGE) were identified and confirmed, one of which is composed of frozen silty clay. The results of statistical data processing were compared. The data on the coefficient of variation of the values of the ultimate long-term resistivity of soils against cone penetration (characteristic of long-term strength) for the frozen EGE are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
