Abstract

By insulating the base of a road with polystyrene foam it is possible to reduce or completely to prevent freezing in the sub grade. The insulating degree required depends on the base construction, the frost susceptibility of the sub grade, on the winter cold, and on the requirements for preventing damaging freezing.
