The article presents the possibilities of using lightweight concrete - foam concrete in road construction. Principles of sustainable development create the need to develop new building materials. Foam concrete is a type of lightweight concrete that has many advantages compared to conventional building materials, for example low density and thermal insulation characteristics. With current development level, any negatively influencing material features are constantly eliminated as well. This paper deals with the substitution of hydraulically bound mixtures by cement foam concrete Poroflow 17-5. The executed assessment is according to the methodology of assessing the existing asphalt pavements in Slovak Republic. The special calculation was used to estimate the modulus of foamed concrete Poroflow 17-5 based on the results of static load tests conducted using the experimental in-situ stand

In the present study, credible analytical and numerical models are developed in order to explain the apparent discrepancies in the ratios of static and dynamic deformation models for assessing the quality of mechanical efficiency of transport structures in Central Europe. Through of experience, authors specifically deal with the comparison of two commonly used methods: the dynamic load plate test, known as the lightweight dynamic test and the static plate load test. This paper presents the relevant correlation dependency of the most commonly used quantification characteristics in earthworks quality control. Their correlation was obtained by applying the static theory of impact to earthworks quality control, which allows for the application of several quality control methods, in line with other member states of the European Union, specifically with regard to constructions under various boundary conditions (climate, soil moisture of the specified layer). According to an analysis of the results of comparisons of static and dynamic load tests, analytical and numerical models of the subsoil formed by soils and uncemented structural materials, respectively, the linear calculation usually used in the conditions of Central Europe does not have universal validity. Rather than relying on the analytical and FEM models for the soil, the authors have determined that the above dependence is a power dependence.
