Features of road design in difficult soil conditions

Abstract

One of the most important tasks facing the road industry is to improve the methodology and technology of road design and construction. Road design is a complicated complex of research works, which includes geological studies, determination of technical parameters, selection of design, and technological solutions. Designing in difficult ground conditions is especially difficult. The paper presents the peculiarities of design and construction of auto roads, the results of laboratory and field soil tests, a choice of road design considering the requirements of normative documentation. The recommendations for the choice of measures to ensure the reliability and durability of road pavement and the high level of reliability are presented.
