Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a project with existing subgrade having varied CBR values (5, 10, and 15), discuss the implications on pavement design and how you would approach material selection.

💡 Hint: Consider how each value informs potential construction techniques.

Question 2

If a test site shows a CBR value of 3, what engineering interventions might you suggest to improve soil conditions for future pavement support?

💡 Hint: Think about methods commonly used to strengthen weak soils.
