Subgrade - an overview ScienceDirect Topics
Subgrade stability is a function of soil type, water content, degree of compaction, mineral content, and other characteristics. The desired goal in construction and maintenance is to secure high internal friction and shearing strength in coarse-grained materials and high cohesion in fine-grained soils. Clays and silts give the most trouble.
