Abstract
The operational reliability of the constructed buildings and structures in the Arctic depends on the rationally adopted types of foundations. In cases of structurally unstable engineering and geological elements (EGE) in the base, stricter requirements shall be imposed on the design and construction of foundations. For bases composed of collapsing soils of natural occurrence, the coefficient of relative collapsing ɛsl and the initial collapse pressure Psl are the main deteriorating indicators. Disregard for their impact in most cases leads to the deterioration in the reliable operation of the erected structures. This paper addresses a case from geotechnical practice, when a timely discovered error of not taking collapsible characteristics into account made it possible to avoid an emergency.
