Popis: Bitumen has been used to produce road base material in regions of cohesionless soil for many years. The engineer, however, invariably faces the problem of reconciling the properties of a given soil with available binders and processes to produce base material having the required properties. The paper describes the investigational work leading to preproduction trials which was followed by successful road construction in an area of aeolian sand in northern Nigeria. (Author/TRRL)
