The frost depth is generally not found in Building Codes, but the IBC -ResidentialCode as least states that local jurisdictions shall determine the depth Bottom of footing is the depth.
Hello all, this is my first post here so please bear with me. Where do you go to find accurate frost depth/line values? At my job, we often have to design footers/foundations rapidly so as …
Frost penetration and frost depth effects are really two different animals. As OldestGuy indicated, even in very cold climates, they recognize that footings do not have to go full depth of frost …
If piles are driven, with a concrete grade beam poured over the pile cap, does the bottom of the grade beam have to be poured below the frost line, or having the piles driven below the frost …
I have virtually an unheated metal shack. It will sit on a slab on grade with a turndown. Is is necessary for the turndown to bear below the frost depth? In my mind, only unheated bearing …
Is there a prescribed method for designing against lateral frost pressure? How does the magnitude of pressure exerted by frost compare with hydrostatic pressure? I am considering various …
And another note, frost depth is usually deeper for cold footings versus heated footings. Is the 48" frost depth for cold, unheated footings? Here where I practice in a cold climate, we have 42" …
I always hear that the footings have to be placed below the frost depth but does that apply to any footing? For a job where the local code indicates frost depth of 42”, all exterior bldg …
Hi all, this may be old to someone but i need your input on frost heave design for my foundation. I'm designing an unheated structural slab supported on piles. Design depth of frost …
A contractor is suggesting the use of 1ft deep, very wide concrete slab to support heavy rotating equipment. The local jurisdiction has a required frost depth 42in. Can a very heavy foundation …

Hello, I am currently designing concrete drilled piers, and per the geotech report, the recommendations incur a 1600 psf design stress for potential frost heave. The recommendations also state that placing friction reducing material can be considered as an alternate option to prevent damage...
I have a footing where there will be a descending slope adjacent to my grade beam. The grade will never fall below the bottom of the footing but I want to make sure they grade around the footing properly to protect from frost. Here is the detail I am planning on showing. Is there a better way...
Hello everyone, I am looking for a way to estimate frost heave of soils without specialized laboratory testing or investigation. I have frost depth, hydrometer results (showing 54% silts), and moisture content. Is there a straightforward way to obtain a reasonably acceptable estimate with a...
As a result of installing a centreline culvert in an existing highway the culvert appears to have settled, however from further investigation it was discovered that the moisture in the existing subgrade surrounding the installed culvert has cause frost heaving to occur causing a bump. Has...
This funny common term "frost depth" gets thrown around a lot and at any specific site it may be way off. Let's say frost depth means where the temperature can go down to 32 degrees F. That doesn't necessarily mean in that zone there will be heaving.
Hi all, this may be old to someone but i need your input on frost heave design for my foundation. I'm designing an unheated structural slab supported on piles. Design depth of frost penetration is 2700mm from soil report. I'm going to use Dow ethaform void form but i dont know how to calculate...
Hello all, this is my first post here so please bear with me. Where do you go to find accurate frost depth/line values? At my job, we often have to design footers/foundations rapidly so as to get them to a costumer for the purposes of an estimate. Because everything needs done ASAP, contacting...
Frost depth also tends to presume a bit of "heated building" in the tabulated numbers, so keep that in mind for say, a freezer building, unheated storage, etc.
Frost penetration and frost depth effects are really two different animals. As OldestGuy indicated, even in very cold climates, they recognize that footings do not have to go full depth of frost penetration if they are in non-frost susceptible soil.
If piles are driven, with a concrete grade beam poured over the pile cap, does the bottom of the grade beam have to be poured below the frost line, or having the piles driven below the frost line complies with placing foundations below the frost line.
I have virtually an unheated metal shack. It will sit on a slab on grade with a turndown. Is is necessary for the turndown to bear below the frost depth? In my mind, only unheated bearing foundations should be below the frost depth. Even though the shack will put load on the turndown, the...
