	Summary:
	Today, following the maximum evolution of road transport, there is a great need for using only the highest quality materials for the construction of modern roads. All these materials lay around us, but they need to be properly utilized, which assumes the knowledge of their properties and predicting behavior in completed structures. There is enough capacity to obtain stone aggregates for the production of all pavement layers in Bosnia and Herzegovina. This paper outlines procedure and defines the basic tests of rock materials in order to demonstrate their usefulness for the construction of pavements in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It gives a brief overview of the main geological features of the area, and state and describe the quarries with the biggest capacity. The main objective of this paper is to determine whether the materials, owned by Bosnia and Herzegovina, have sufficient quality to be used for the construction of pavements, as well as where and how they can be used.
