| Sumario: | The Chapter “Challenges in the construction of highways in the Brazilian Amazonia environment: Part I: Identification of Engineering Problems” dealt with the identification of Engineering problems concerning the implementation of road infrastructure in the Brazilian Amazon. This present chapter deals with Engineering solutions to overcome the obstacles mentioned in that previously chapter, focusing on alternatives that contemplate the use of the synthetic coarse aggregate of calcined clay (SCACC), recycled materials from ceramic waste, soil–emulsion mixes, and chemical additives, in partial or total replacement of coarse and fine natural aggregates, in addition to the use of piled embankments, for the reinforcement of the natural subgrade in the presence of a very thick, soft soil layer in the foundation of the highway. |
