There is a huge variety of materials and technologies used in the implementation of construction and restoration work. They are also used in the construction of roads. It is impossible to consider all their varieties and give them a description. Therefore, we consider only the most effective in our opinion. This article describes and reviews some types of modern building materials and technologies used in the restoration of roads. Some varieties of these materials are listed. Their brief description is given. Their advantages and disadvantages are considered. The introduction contains the significance of materials in construction work. The optimal and most economical materials to use are listed in the summaries and conclusion. Certain types of materials and technologies are described in the article. 1. Introduction Humidity is a natural destroyer of any roads. It destroys the foundation of the road structure and, when frozen in microcracks, breaks the coating. Therefore, when designing, the level of groundwater is always considered. It is possible to build a solid highway in marshy areas. However, special advanced technologies and appropriate building materials are needed here. Under normal climatic conditions, there are the following restrictions: at high humidity it is not recommended to use materials such as dusty sand, fine sandy loam, and dusty loam in the construction of roads [1]. Such types of soil are used exclusively in dry places, since when wet, they quite reduce the bearing property of the roadway and
Aggregate, in building and construction, material used for mixing with cement, bitumen, lime, gypsum, or other adhesive to form concrete or mortar. The aggregate gives volume, stability, resistance to wear or erosion, and other desired physical properties to the finished product. Commonly used aggregates include sand, crushed or broken stone, gravel (pebbles), broken blast-furnace slag, boiler ashes (clinkers), burned shale, and burned
