Abstract

The article presents numerical modeling techniques, calculations, and recommendations for rational roadbed structures in the zone of permafrost and soft soils in the independent railway line construction areas that are in the zone of influence of the constructed reservoir in the Far East Federal District of Russia, taking into account constructional measures that reduce the intensity and uneven deformation of the defrost base. The usage of a geomaterials in the structure allows to lessen considerably the volume of expensive hard mineral volcanic filling of high quality. Numeric modeling of the structure behavior was done using a programming geotechnical complex, an “FEM model.” This allowed to give a quantitative and qualitative assessment of freezing and thawing processes in conditions of annual cycle construction.
