The degree of compaction for a crushed stone roadbed is one of the most important technical characteristics of road construction works. Insufficient compaction can have significant effects on the resulting bearing capacity, even in road structures reinforced with geosynthetic materials. The present study concernes the utility of using geosynthetic reinforcement in the base layer of a road structure, while varying the degree of compaction on 1:1 scale models.
