← HistoryWhich outcome concerning Roman road systems increases when drainage channels are persistently blocked?
A)Aggregate frost heave accelerates considerably✓
B)Increased bonding agent carbonization occurs
C)Reduced structural brick thermal expansion
D)Decreased surface layer solar reflectance
💡 Explanation
Increased aggregate frost heave results when trapped water expands upon freezing, causing road surface fracturing, increased by hindered drainage. This is because freeze-thaw cycles accelerate deconstruction; therefore, frost heave is the primary concern, rather than effects related to direct heat.
