MODELING THE STRENGTH CHARACTERISTICS OF LATERITIC SOILS AND GRAVELS IN PAVEMENT CONSTRUCTION

This paper discusses the development and the application of multivariate regression for estimating field California Bearing Ratio (CBR) from humid zone, using index properties and field dry density. Topic headers include: climate and geology, methodology, data analysis, strength model, and summary.
