Across much of the rural and developing world, the absence of reliable, all-weather roads remains one of the…

Traditional road construction practices often attempt to overcome poor soil conditions by excavating unsuitable materials and replacing them with imported aggregates, crushed stone, cement-treated materials, or another structural fill. These approaches are frequently…
