Figure 4-83a. Example of computation of sustainable load capacity of pile in permafrost. (Average sustainable and
adfreeze strength vs. temperature. Values taken from figure 4-82. If an estimate is desired of the load capacity of the pile
at failure, values from the curve "Average strength at Ultimate Pile Bearing Capacity " in figure 4-82 should be used.)
