Resiliency and Winterization - Roads and Construction Sites
Vol. 3, No. 2

While much of North America is currently enduring extreme drought conditions, the subject of winterizing roads and construction sites against rainfall events might seem like a joke to the people living in these areas. Meanwhile, other regions are suffering a higher frequency of heavy rainfall events and winterization is becoming a nearly year-round concern. The sad news is that if you can’t keep water out of your road foundations, construction sites and earthwork structures, your infrastructure will fail the resiliency test. With extreme weather events now the rule, even areas currently in drought conditions will face extreme wet weather events including flash floods. There is the real likelihood of heavily saturated, washed out, or water-related damage to civil and transportation infrastructure if the aggregate and soil materials were not stabilized during initial construction.

The good news is stabilization product technology is available, at low cost, which can convert water suctioning soils and aggregates into water-resistant and water-shedding materials. Stabilization can make aggregates and soils more capable of retaining their load bearing capacity and still able to pass the resiliency test after extreme wet-weather events. Keeping water out is the name of the game, and the hyperlinks to case studies below will demonstrate just how effective this innovative technology can be in the construction of more resilient infrastructure.
