Abstract: Pavement design with some soils, such as lateritic soils, is still a “real challenge” in some countries. In the tropical countries guide, recommended for Burkina Faso, the pavement design is performed according to the class… read more here.

DOI: 10.1520/jte20180890
Abstract: Fine-grained lateritic soils, which are typically found in tropical regions and have been used successfully in low-cost pavements, are often considered inadequate for the base and subbase pavement layers when the material selection is based… read more here.
