Recommendations on road design methods are based on assessments of strength of subgrade using California Bearing Ratio method; aspects considered include influence of different tropical climates on moisture conditions under sealed surfaces and their effects on strength of subgrades, sub-bases and bases, and rapidly increasing traffic which is general feature of roads in developing countries of tropical and subtropical regions.
