.... It is clear that non-freezable water in clays contains sufficient mobility above 173 K to act as a lubricant between the laminae and allow some ductility. It is only below 173 K that clays become fracturesensitive. KEYWORDS: clays; snow/ice; soil-structure interaction; stiffness; subsurface structures...

INTRODUCTION The geotechnical problems related to the placement of structures on coastal and offshore calcareous soil foundations are well documented in the literature. Since it is clear that further developments are likely in coastal areas with calcareous soil, it seems...
