It is the insitu soil beneath the road
-
It has requirements of: strength-to support road loads, Drainage- to shed water, line and level-correct alignment and level for the road, and smooth-no bumps and hollows

Generally consists of lower quality materials than the base course but better than the subgrade soil
-
A subbase course is not always needed or used
-
All of the above
Pregunta 28
Pregunta
