Features of road-climatic zoning of territories

摘要

The paper reflects the Russian and foreign experience of road-climatic zoning. It demonstrates the need to refine the applicable taxonomic zoning system using the taxonomic scheme “zone – subzone – road district”. When creating a database for road-climatic zoning, the authors of this paper, in contrast to the scheme adopted in Russia and abroad, take into account territorial patterns of water and heat processes that occur in road structures. The paper justifies soil characteristics for designing pavements in the study area.
