Conclusions 1. The scheme that we developed is efficient and ensures thawing over a period of 40–45 days. 2. To accelerate thawing by 8–10 days when using two electric heaters in each hole, it is necessary to raise the heaters by 3–4 m after 25 days and continue thawing. 3. An 8–10-day reduction in the thaw time is also possible by using three 1.25-kW electric heaters in each hole in place of two heaters of the same capacity, installing them at depths of 20, 14, and 8 m from the surface. Taking the results of the experimental work account, the State Institute for Special Design developed a plan for the production preconstruction thawing of soils over a area of 12,380 m2. The volume of soil thawed was 324,400 m3.
