✦ Synopsis

Considerable research has been carried out to demonstrate the reactions, properties, design and construction of lime-treated 'temperature' soils. Unfortunately, instances with tropical soils, especially laterites, are very scantv in the literature. The paper reviews lime treatment of lateritic soils and gravels in the existing literature.
