Gravel road embankments in low-lying areas. Cellular confinement systems can be used to prevent the washboarding effect. The gravel used consists of varying amount of crushed stone, sand, and "fines". Fines are silt or clay particles smaller than , which can act as a binder. Crushed stone is used because gravel with fractured faces will stay in place better than rounded river pebbles. A good gravel for a gravel road will have a higher percentage of fines than gravel used as a subbase for a paved road. This often causes problems if a gravel road is paved without adding sand and gravel
Silt out zero visibility. Always using guidelines during penetration dives is an important safety measure as it helps divers find their way out. Surface supplied divers are generally at less risk from silt out as they are connected to the surface by an umbilical and can not get lost, but they may become disorientated, and unable to work effectively. It is also more likely for them to have an umbilical snag in bad visibility, and if assistance is required from the stand-by diver, this is more difficult in a silt out. A severe silt out will make the video cameras on a
