Abstract
AbstractThe modern science of strength and plasticity of building provides ample opportunities for the design and constructions of cost-effective structures while ensuring their high reliability under extreme operating conditions. Such structures include drilling platforms for offshore hydrocarbon production and helipads. Studies by glaciologists document the anisotropy and plasticity of ice and the huge loads that ice fields can exert on the vertical supports of drilling platforms. The method for determining the compression ice strength in the boreholes without extraction of the ice samples using a borehole jack is being developed at the Laboratory of Ice Physics of the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute and considered in this article.KeywordsCompression ice strengthPlasticityVertical beamBendingBoreholeJack
