Here in the midwest, we sometimes get several freeze/thaw cycles each winter. As we all know, this is the root cause of frost heave. The more cycles the greater the heave. My question is this. When designing a raised benchwork type RR, do all the supports need to be either buried below frost line, or all set on blocks set on gravel bases? Can the supports be mixed or is that going to create a lot of problems?
