← HistoryWhich risk increases when Roman road construction deviates substantially from standard practice?
A)Inaccurate surveying lowers grade
B)Increased material reduces lifespan
C)Reduced structural integrity prompts failure✓
D)Compacted foundation raises repair time
💡 Explanation
When Roman road construction deviates from standard practice, reduced compactive effort diminishes the interlock between aggregate particles because key processes ensure material stability, immediately provoking premature failure rather than simply inaccurate measurement or lengthened repair time. Therefore structural integrity is reduced, rather than lifespan or repair time, all conditions arise from correct methodology.
