To provide firm and level bed for the sleepers to rest on
To allow for maintaining correct track level without disturbing the rail road bed
To drain off the water quickly and to keep the sleepers in dry conditions
To discourage the growth of vegetation
To protect the surface of formation and to form an elastic bed
To hold the sleepers in position during the passage of trains
To transmit and distribute the loads from the sleepers to the formation
To provide lateral stability to the track as a whole
