Abstract
This thesis is concerned with upgrading marginal cohesionless
soils by altering the natural soil gradation through mechanical
methods, thereby rendering otherwise unsuitable soils acceptable as
pavement construction materials. The submarginal soil tested is
classified as an A-2-4(0) soil according to the American Association
of State Highway Officials' Classification Standards.
