specified in this chapter only for routes which are free of inclines in longitu-
dinal and lateral direction.
The ground of the path to be driven must be stable enough to bear the axle
loads.
If the surface pressure of the tyres exceeds the permissible load on the
ground, the surface area of the tyres must be increased by laying stable
material (e.g. wooden planks) on it.
