The economic state of a country is closely related to the state of its road network. One of the factors affecting the structural behaviour of a road is the strength of the various pavement layers. Therefore, one cannot stress the importance of correct materials selection.

Geosure has a wealth of experience in this field, undertaking material investigation for both rural and national roads.

Examples of some of the roads investigated are:

• N5/6 in Aliwal North

• MR 181 between Winterton and Ladysmith

• T38 gravel in the Eastern Cape

• Numerous roads for the Ethekwini Municipality

• Various Industrial Roads e.g. Ferralloys, SAPREF

• Various roads in Swaziland

• Rehabilitation of the Maputo-Chokwe Railway Line in Mozambique

• P68 St. Faith’s Road in Port Shepstone
