UTILIDORS
PERMAFROST
A distinct feature of Inuvik is the use of UTILIDORS
(above-ground utility conduits carrying water and
sewer) which are covered by corrugated steel. They
run throughout town connecting most buildings,
and as a result there are many small bridges and
underpasses. They are necessary because of the
permafrost underlying the town.
If the PERMAFROST under buildings was to thaw,
the ground would shift and building materials would
lose their support. Most of the buildings and homes
in Inuvik sit above ground on pilings. In between the
ground and the floor of the structure is an open crawl
space to ventilate building heat away from the ground.
