Water Bound Macadam
Water Bound Macadam
The concept of water bound macadam road was suggested by John Macadam, who was a Scottish
engineer. The road whose wearing course consists of clean crushed aggregates, mechanically
interlocked by rolling and bound together with filler material and water laid on a well compacted base
course, is called water bound macadam (W.B.M) road.
