Abstract
Based on the quality control diagnostics of the used base layers on the interstation railway section Palárikovo - Nové Zámky, the article analyzes the achieved results of static load tests that were carried out on the plane of the sub-ballast upper surface. The verification of the values is based on the project documentation, in which, on the basis of a previously performed geotechnical survey, the designer proposed a suitable type of structural sub-ballast layers. The design of the structural sub-ballast layers reflects the expected deformation resistance of the subgrade surface, its water regime, the railway line characteristic (speed zone), the type of construction work (reconstruction) and also takes into account the principle of conservation of natural resources (recycling of recovered ballast bed material).
