Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

If a soil has a CBR value of 50% at 2.5 mm and a CBR value of 70% at 5 mm, should this soil be considered robust enough for roadway support? Discuss the implications if the values were reversed.

💡 Hint: Consider the characteristics of soil strength and implications for road durability.

Question 2

Describe a scenario where the CBR value might dramatically change. What environmental or physical factors could influence this result?

💡 Hint: Reflect on the effects of weather or mistreatment of the soil during the CBR test.
