Of the construction methods should
aim to attain will be summarized
briefly.
(1) The questions Of location, de-
sign, drainage, grading, ETC., are, If
anything, more important in the case
of sand-clay roads than in the case Of
earth roads.
(2) The amount of clay contained in
a finished sand-clay road surface
should be only slightly more than suf-
fcient to fill the voids in the sand.
Ordinarily about one part of clay to
two parts Of sand gives satisfactory
results, though the proper proportion
for any particular case can be deter
mined best by experiment.
(3) For average country-road traffic
and a stable roadbed, the depth Of a
sand-clay surface should be about
eight inches after it Is cOmpacted. II
clean sand and pure clay were used to
make the mixture, the respective
depths Of the sand layer and the clay
layer required would be approximate
ly eight inches and four inches, meas
ured loose. 1t is customary to decrease
the surface thickness from center to
sides, with feather edge extending
out over the shoulders, but this prac-
tice makes it necessary for most Of
the traffic to use the center Of the

is first constructed, to correct def
ciencies Of sand or clay and to keep
the surface in shape.
Case ITO construct a sandy-clay
road surface by admixing sand with
clay from the roadbed, the process is
exactly similar to that described for
Case l, except that sand is spread over
the graded roadbed and clay is plOwed
up from beneath to mix with it. The
depth to which the sand should be
spread for an eight-inch finished sur
face usually varies from four to eight
inches according to the amount Of
sand contained originally in the clay
Of the roadbed. The depth to which
the pillow burrows should extend down
into the clay usually varies from about
three inches to about five inches, and
depends on the sand content Of the
clay and the compactness Of the road
bed. 1t should be borne in mind that,
in this case, it is better to have a sur
plus of sand than a surplus Of clay
in the surface, because the former is
more easily corrected.
Case 3.-Figure 2 illustrates the two
principal steps involved in construct
ing a sand-clay surface with topsoil
or other natural sand-clay mixture.
The roadbed should be graded in the
usual way, except that the portion to
