I am researching on a eco friendly and low cost method for road design.

1. I have searched that about 20-30 kg/m2 concrete waste is generated
which can be used in sub-base and base layers, thereby reducing the cost
of waste disposal and material needed for construction. I want to know,
can this technique be used in India, and how ?

2. Water table is close to the surface(about 6-8 m). So, will the
capillary suction affect the sub-base and base layers ? And how can we
prevent it ?

3. Can you suggest some more alternative materials which can be used to
construct the road and their technology like rubber-asphalt and fly ash ?

Thanks in advance.
