Abstract EN

Road construction projects are considered one of the most important projectsthat countries target for the advancement of their economic and urban reality, andthat the roads represent the links between the different regions and on the otherhand, the roads usually extend to vast areas, which means the diversity of soil that theroads pass through, so it is necessary to know the physical properties And chemical, as well as determining the materials, procedures and treatment methods required foreach type of soil.

Thus, it was found through this study that the region along the roadKarbala - Razzaza - Al-Akhdar - cement plant, consists of two layers, the upper layerextending from the surface of the earth up to 0.3 m consisting of loose soil, my loveYeh is a railway to the sandy alluvial container salts and organic materials.

As for the second layer, which extends from 0.3 m and reaches between 0.5to 2 m, thus a similar sandy soil with a gradient containing gravel and silt features ofmedium to very solid density.

It was found from the study that sand is the largest proportion in the road areasoil and reaches about 80% of the total soil components.

The study concluded thatcompacting the road area soil with good portability can potentially create the road.

The value of the CBR was within the normal range, ranging from 8-11.

As for the chemical results, the soil of the road area contained a high percentageof salts and organic materials, and thus it is necessary to take into account the resultsreached by the study from the values of the characteristics of the soil of Karbala Road- Razzaza - Al-Akhdar Cement Factory at the design and construction.
