Abstract
The paper is devoted to the construction of various earth and engineering structures being operated on soft soils in the northern regions of Russia with a pronounced continental climate and a lot of wetlands.The problem of year-round cooling of water-saturated soil to freezing temperatures in order to convert it into a frozen state of permafrost is considered. To convert the soil into a frozen state of permafrost and keep the state all year around, including the summer period, the new soil cooling apparatus has been developed. The apparatus is economical; it has no moving parts and can operate for a long time without involving any staff.
