Concepts of house structures for permafrost areas : preliminary investigation of three-point foundation system / J.L. Richards & Associates Limited.: NH17-128/1981E-PDF
"J.L. Richards and Associates Limited has been retained by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation to conduct a preliminary investigation into the feasibility of supporting Arctic housing on a three point foundation system. If appropriately designed, such housing would eliminate the internal racking and torsional problems associated with movement of the foundations located on active permafrost. Such racking frequently causes significant damage to housing structures constructed in the Arctic."--Introd.
