| 5 | Hydration | The combination of water with any substance such as lime or minerals, which is responsible for the alteration of minerals in weathering; the formation of hydrated lime; the setting of cement and so on. |
| 6 | Hveem’S Resistance Value Test (The R-Value) | The R-value is a measure of the ability of a soil to resist lateral deformation when a vertical load acts upon it. The R-value ranges from zero (the resistance of water) to 100 (the approximate resistance of steel). Rvalues of soil and aggregate usually range from 5 to 85. |
