Summary: An experimental and analytical programme regarding drainage characteristics of granular stone pavement subbase/base courses is realized. These characteristics are analysed in terms of frost susceptibility, as well as in terms of good internal drainage properties of pavement structures. The aim of these researches is establishing the more realistic criteria for granular materials in order to improve existing specifications.

Keywords: granular stone materials, drainage characteristics, laboratory tests, bases (subbases), pavement structures

Research goals: The goals of the researching is to develope more realistic criteria for base course granular materials of pavement structures. It is expected that results of the research make possible to improve existing technical specifications in order of more economic use of local materials. This could have significant influence on construction cost savings.
