The article deals with the problem to determine the strength properties of the ballasted clogged sand dunes, including the action vibrodynamic loads. According to the results of laboratory experiments for the first time we obtained the reduction of specific adhesion and angle of internal friction of gravel ballast material on the density and the percentage of blockage of sand dunes under the influence of both static vibrodynamic the action of loads.
