Which risk increases when intense chariot traffic concentrates stress on inadequately compacted Roman road bedding layers?

💡 Explanation

When traffic stresses inadequately compacted road bedding, differential settlement occurs because particles rearrange under load leading to heaving and rutting. Therefore roadbed heaving and rutting increases, rather than other outcomes which occur in different systems following distinct mechanisms. Aqueducts require hydraulic failure, not weight, soldier pace faces few concerns at medium weight, cracked bridges have to do with concrete and curing rates.
