Road construction and rehabilitation projects often encounter problematic subgrade soils. In certain circumstances, soft soils will not even bear the weight of construction workers, let alone support heavy equipment. Problems can also occur with manufactured materials used for subgrade, subbase, or base layers. These problems should be addressed before or during roadwork if the goal is a resilient roadway that will last without significant long-term maintenance issues. Stabilization, via chemical or geosynthetic methods, offers efficient solutions to challenging roadwork projects. This article summarizes a literature review on the state of research and practice for roadwork soil stabilization.
