In this section, the degradations (cracks) significantly affect 20.28% of the section for a
length of 2.900 km. They are located on the left side of the road at the level of the wheel
track and the shoulder.
This section 4 has lost its bituminous coating almost everywhere. The degradations (cracks)
affect 2.84% of the section length out of total length of 10.800 km.
These percentages have been calculated in relation to a total length of 13.700Km which is
subdivided into two distinct Sections. The first starts at PK 61+300 and ends at PK 64+200
and the second starts at PK 64+200 and ends at PK 75+000.
- Poor assessment of the dimension of the roadway compared to the existing platform
in section 3 on the left lane;
- Poorly executed construction joint during asphalting works.
The following four levels make it possible to divide the studied project into homogeneous
zones:
The division was carried out by a scoring system presented in Annexure 5 in the form of a
synoptic graphic summarizing the degradations observed.

All the trial pits were done at every 100 m interval along the alternate lane in LHS/RHS.
The average thickness of the asphalt layers for PK 61+300 to PK 64+200 in place is 16.0 cm,
generally made up of graved bitumen. This thickness is supported by the reinforcement work
carried out in 2012-2014 by the Acciona Contractor.
In the above table, the thicknesses of the existing asphalt concrete are given as an
indication. A coring campaign was carried out to determine the thickness of the asphalt far
from the edge of the pavement.
The asphalt concrete is present along this entire selected road section as wearing course &
base course, supported by GNT as a subbase course and Laterite as a capping layer all along
the road section on LHS. While, on RHS, thick layer of asphalt concrete is present along the
entire selected road section as wearing course & base course, supported by Laterite as a
capping layer all along the road section. This null thickness of GNT near edge of RHS could be
due to some retrofitting in geometric alignment of the project as part of the reinforcement
work carried out in 2012-2014: The widening was carried out on the opposite side of the HV
power line which is located to the right of the road. The average GNT thickness on LHS is 28
cm & null on RHS.
The section from PK64+200-PK75+000 is mostly non-asphalt. It lost its asphalt concrete due
to degradation and no follow-up maintenance. This section is recently improved by Colas in
May 2020 with unbound material, granularity 0/50, 0/240 & 0/700 grading as per the site
conditions with a layer of geotextile on the Load Bearing PST. The thickness of such unbound
layers is varying from 20 cm to 55 cm in general and reaching to 1m depth in additional to 55
cm where 0/700 sized boulders are used as per the required ground improvement. Mostly,
laying of 20 cm with Geotextile material is followed throughout the length & width of
pavement followed by 55 cm with geotextile material. The information obtained through
trial pits does not entirely covers this information all throughout the length as the pits were
done on the earthen shoulder to avoid much damage to the well compacted unbound layers
as the frequency of these tests are at 100 m interval in the staggered manner.
As per the information gathered through the As Built Documentation for PK 59+500 to PK
74+500, the approx. length (%) of these improvements with 20 cm 0/50 is for 49% of length,
15 cm 0/50+40 cm 0/240 is for 29% of length, 18% of length has repaired asphalt and
remaining 4% of length is repaired with 15 cm 0/50+40 cm 0/240+100 cm 0/700.
Since, proposed pavement structure is going to be built on the existing unbound material
top which is supported by the lateritic gravel as capping layer, the modulus of existing
platform is considered to be as 120 MPa.

5.4 Core drilling:
A coring campaign was carried out from PK61+300 to PK64+200. These soundings show
similar pavement structures with manual roadside soundings.
Table 6 gives the thicknesses of the cores sampled as well as their locations.

Overall, the surface condition of all core’s holes is smooth and all core samples are in good
condition. None of the cores were cracked, fragmented or broken up.
20
The density of Cores varies between 2.263 and 2.38.
As per CEREMA Guide (Table 31; below extracted from page 85) recommends the values to
be retained for the modules of existing asphalt according to the quality of the cores and the
surface of the core holes. This is in the case of consideration of reinforcement works and
regardless of the age of the existing asphalt concrete.

In present case, all cores of section 3 are healthy without any cracking, therefore 2000 MPa can
be considered as the restoring module, however, as a precautionary measure we retain E=1000
MPa (for healthy pavement stretch as per the visual degradation survey) and E = 500 MPa (for
distressed pavement stretch as per the visual degradation survey) for the dimensioning of the
structure S2.
These tests are carried out according to the directives of standard NF P 98-200-2 relating to
measurements of the deflection generated by a rolling load using the Benkelman beam.
This corresponds to D5 (Bad), according to the CEREMA Guide, for this section number 3.
21
The deflection couldn’t be carried out in section 4 because the most of the asphalt concrete is
very damaged or absent.
The tests were carried out at a step of 200m in staggered rows, once on the left lane and
once on the right lane.
The Table 7 below gives the values of the EV2 modules as well as the locations and nature of
the supports tested.

The measurement of EV2 modulus by Plate Load Test is carried out considering NF P94-117-
1.
Only EV2 tests done on GNT 0/31.5 and 0/50 are considered: In this case the EV2 module
varies between 136.4 MPa up to 1500 MPa. The average being 513.1 MPa.
The Plate load test carried out along section PK 64+200 to PK 75+000 (on unbound material -
existing road top) suggests the values to be more than 120 MPa, thus indicating the existing
platform to be of PF3 platform.
The platforms consisting of the existing pavement were examined by all the tests
summarized above. The selected sections and the test results confirm the presence of two
clearly distinct homogeneous sections, namely:
25
The following pavement structures can be used for these two sections as indicated in the
following Table 8:

The role of the platform is to protect the supporting ground from weather and site overloads
during the construction stage of the road and to withstand the effect of traffic throughout
the calculation period (theoretical service life).
The CBR testing of upper part of the earthworks is carried out for section 3 & 4. Whereas, in
case of new construction works (as proposed for section 4), the existing pavement structure
(excluding existing asphalt as to be discarded) is going to be the new platform for this new
design. Therefore, testing of this material type is also been carried out to ascertain the
available platform for the design of pavement for section proposed for new construction.
26
Characteristic of the upper part of the earthworks
This involves the rehabilitation of two sections of existing road where section 3 is proposed
for reinforcement and section 4 for new construction. The sections do not contain any
serious concerns linked to the quality of the upper part of the earthworks of the existing
pavement.
The classification of the support materials for the roadway in carried out according to
standard NF P 11-300. The water table level is identified at 0.90m depth during trail pit
excavation carried out for this section at few locations.
PK 61.3 to PK 64.2
The soils of the upper part of the earthworks consist of Fine clayey sand and sandy &
gravelly soil with fines, thus classifying as Class A (sub-class A2 to A4) and Class B
(sub-class B6). Of the total samples tested 67% samples are classified as Class B
material.
The plasticity index in case of Class A varies between 12.4 to 32.0 characterizing
moderately clayey soils and for Class B varies between 9.8 to 39.1 thus characterizing
as moderately clayey to clayey soils
The nature parameters reveal a Dmax which ranges from 8 mm to 40 mm.
The CBR of the tested sub-soil material and sometimes combination of GNT results
with a CBR varying from 6% to 100%.
PK 64.2 to PK 75.0
The soils of the upper part of the earthworks consist of Fine clayey sand and sandy &
gravelly soil with fines, thus classifying as Class A (sub-class A2 & A3) and Class B (sub-
class B4 to B6). Of300 the total samples tested 67% samples are classified as Class B
material.
The plasticity index in case of Class A varies between 13.5 to 37.0 characterizing
moderately clayey soils and for Class B varies between 10.0 to 32.8 thus
characterizing as moderately clayey to clayey soils
The nature parameters reveal a Dmax which ranges from 5 mm to 40 mm.
The CBR of the tested sub-soil material and sometimes combination of Laterite or
crushes results with a CBR varying from 5.3% to 90%. The CBR testing is mostly done
for the sub-soil material, where during sample collection some crushed material got
mixed with the samples.
The samples exclusively tested for gravel laterite resulting with CBR varying from
7.2% to 90% (19 samples), where average CBR is found to be 34% with majority of
samples exceeding 25% CBR (13 samples).
27
The water state of the soil sampled shows that the samples are saturated with water
because of the equatorial rainy climate in the project area.
Taking into account the nature of the soils encountered (67 % of class B) and the
remediation work and realization of the planned coverings which make it possible to ensure
a certain waterproofing.
This involves the categorization of materials available for section 4 after removal of exiting
degraded asphalt. The properties thus obtained majorly correspond to the material available
at a depth of 0.6-0.7 m.
The classification of the support materials for the roadway in carried out according to
standard NF P 11-300. Where, the important findings are as follows:
PK 64.2 to PK 75.0
The material classifies to sandy & gravelly soil with fines, thus classifying as Class B
(sub-class B5 & B6) and Class C (Soil containing fines and large elements) for just one
sample. Of total samples tested, 73% samples are classified as Sub-Class B5 material.
The plasticity index varies between 7.3 to 18.1.
The nature parameters reveal a Dmax which ranges from 20 mm to 63 mm.
The CBR of the proposed platform material varies from 25% to 39%.
Overall length of segment 4 between PK 61.30 to PK 75 is divided into two sections. PK 61.3
to 64.2 is Section 3 pavement reinforcement and PK 64.2 to PK 75 is Section 4 new
construction. The platform modulus recommended for section 3 is 50Mpa and section 4 is
120Mpa based on laboratory trail pit CBR results of soil in place and platform material,
Benkelman Beam deflection test, plate load test and core drilling of asphalt paved road. The
platform purge construction is recommended at PK 63+500 to PK 63+550 RHS with 15cm of
new GNT + 9cm of EME, PK 63+900 to PK 63+950 LHS with 15cm of new GNT + 9cm of EME
as per retro calculations submitted in pavement design report.

I GENERALITY
I.1 Generality
As part of the rehabilitation and reinforcement of the national road 1 (RN1), the
company AFCONS, requested the Gabonese Studies and Tests Laboratory (LG2E)
- partner laboratory of the ADN-Engineering Studies Office, for a geotechnical
characterization study of the platform materials.
The twenty (20) samples were taken and brought to LG2E by AFCONS. They
come from section RN1, PK 70 + 200 to PK 74 + 800.
This test report presents the results of the tests, analyzes and recommendations
for the rest of the project. It constitutes, with its appendices (in PDF), an
inseparable whole and has been published in nine (9) and twenty (20) pages.
I.2 Project
According to the information in our possession, this generally concerns the
construction and rehabilitation works of the so-called "Transgabonaise" road to
link the province of the Estuary to the province of Haut - Ogooué via those of the
Moyen - Ogooué, Ogooué - Ivindo and Ogooué - Lolo.
I.3 Mission
The objective of the LG2E laboratory was to conduct a geotechnical campaign to
characterize the various samples through laboratory tests, in accordance with the
standards and regulations in force in the field.
The main references and standards used in this study are as follows:
Main standards:

II.1 Materials
The samples brought by AFCONS come from a section of the RN1 (PK 70+200
au PK 74+800) which was the subject of works (in 2013 - 2014) and also of
multiple maintenance works.
The samples are made of various types: clays, clayey and gravelly lateritic sands,
See Pictures assembly below
Unlike Materials from section 1, we realize that those samples are more
homogeneous

The results obtained and contained in Table 1 above show that the soils
encountered all along the platform studied are essentially of two (2) families: fine
soils (class A), and sandy and gravelly soils with fines (class B). However, the
following subclasses have been identified:
• Fine soils such as fine clayey sands, silts and low plastic clays (class A and
subclass A2);
• Fine soils of clay and marly clay types, very plastic silts (class A and subclass
A3);
• Sandy and gravelly soils with little clay (class B and subclass B5).
• Sandy and gravelly soils with fine sand types and clayey to very clayey gravel
(class B and subclass B6).
Nota Bene: The classification of platform materials in the table was carried out
according to the NF P 11 300 standard and the GTR.
It should be noted that in the case of this study, the samples were taken during
the rainy season. We record:
• The studied materials have water contents oscillating between 12% and
22,2%, that is to say a very wet state (th);
• The bearing index (CBR) varies between 7,2 and 90,0 while the swelling
oscillates between 0.23% and 3,43%.

I- INTRODUCTION
At the request of the Contractor AFCONS Infrastructure Limited, the Design Office GERI SA
carried out a deflection measurement on the PK50 - PK64 pavement of the national road RN1.
The measurements were carried out in staggered rows on both lanes of the road with a spacing
of 25m between two measurements.
They are presented in relation to the PK0 (origin in Libreville) and in relation to the project
direction taken from Libreville to Bifoun.
II- PRESENTATION
1. Principle of the test:
This is about measuring the deflection thanks to the Benkelman beam under a load of 130 KN,
it is represented by the rear axle of a weight-heavy truck. The beam sensor is placed on the
existing pavement altered due to the twinning wheels of the truck. After the truck
moves, the sensor records the vertical displacement of the existing pavement which is read and
recorded on the measurement sheets. The deflections are subsequently processed in order to
deduce the characteristic deflections calculated by the method explained below.
The details of the procedure and results calculations comply with the standard NFP 98-200 – 1
-1991.
On the basis of visual observation, the section PK50 - PK64 was divided into two main sections:
- From PK50+000 to PK56+200, length 6.2 Km: the existing pavement is completely
degraded and there is no utility in its recovery;
- From PK56 + 200 to PK64+000, length 7.8 km: the road is in overall good condition
except for the few cracks and potholes visible in the last 2 .7 km. Subject to the pavement
design, these degradations may be the subject of repairs, its placing in the right-of-way
of the project and its general coating.
Note that this section can be divided into two sub-sections as shown in section III of this report.
1. Measurements:
The deflection measurements were performed on the two lanes of the road at about 1m from
the edge of the pavement. They were carried out in staggered rows every 25m on the right lane
and on the left lane.
The results are shown in appendices 1 and 2 as a graphic named "deflectogram" and a synthesis
table.
2. Characteristic deflections:
As a reminder, the characteristic deflection D90 or also noted Dc is calculated from a series of
so-called "raw" values by the formula:
D90 = m + kσ
With, m: average of deflections raw values
σ: standard deviation and k a predetermined probability coefficient
The standard deviation is greater than 15 shows that the auscultated section presents a
heterogeneous behavior.
A finer division into homogeneous zones on the basis of characteristic deflections and
observations in the field makes it possible to distinguish the three sections of the following
table:
Deflection class for T0 to T1
Left lane Right Lane
traffic
Section 1: PK50-PK56+200
Average 40.2 41.6
Standard deviation 20.5 13.4 Very poor
D90 81.3 68.3
Section 2: PK56+200-PK61+300
Average 24.3 23.4
Standard deviation 12.0 8.2 Fair
D90 48.3 39.7
Section 3: PK61+300-PK64+000
Average 39.6 45.3
Standard deviation 16.2 16.1 Very poor
D90 72.0 77.6
Concerning PK56+200 to PK61+300 section, the deflection level is 44.0 / 100 mm on the left
lane and to 48.3 / 100 mm on the right lane, so an average of 39.7 / 100 mm. This level remains
“Medium” within the meaning of the same table number 17 of the SETRA Guideline. It does
not highlight any structural faults in the existing pavement, hence the interest of its recovery.
3. Other degradations:
It should be noted that this report is limited to the presentation of the deflection measurements
carried out on the pavement between the PK50+000 and the PK64+000.
The visual inspection of the same section as well as the degradation recording will be the subject
of a separate report.
Given the deflection measurements carried out and the pavement condition visible at the site,
we recommend, subject to pavement design:
- From PK50+000 to PK56+200: To rise the designed line of 25 to 30
cm with recycling the existing pavement material, to use it in addition to the foundation
layer material and the construction of base and bearing courses as defined by the typical
cross section of the project;
- From PK56+200 KP 61+300: Widening the existing pavement to make in the project
row-of-way and by the general application of the wearing course asphaltic concrete;
- PK 61+300 to PK64+000: repair pavement areas with signs of deterioration or fatigue
by delimiting and by removing the base and wearing courses, as well as the
reconstruction of the pavement structure according to the technical specifications.

I. PRÉSENTATION
On the request and for the account of the company AFCONS INFRASTRUCTURE LTD
GABON, the GERI design office carried out a material identification within the framework of
the road construction of the RN1, section PK24 - PK105.
The materials were brought by AFCONS INFRASTRUCTURES LTD GABON to the GERI
laboratory and were subjected to a complete identification (natural water content; particle size
analysis and Atterberg limits), compaction tests (modified Proctor) and bearing capacity tests
(CBR after immersion).
This report presents the results of all these tests and their analysis. It is part of the G3 mission
(study and geotechnical monitoring of execution) entrusted by AFCONS to GERI.
The purpose of the study is to analyze the appropriateness of these materials for use in road
construction.
GERI is responsible for a G3 mission in accordance with the NF P 94 500 standard, Missions
d'ingénierie géotechnique, November 2013, presented below:

The plasticity tests were conducted again at the request of AFCONS after all the identification,
compaction and bearing capacity tests had been carried out. The liquidity limit dropped by 15
points, as did the plasticity index, which dropped by less than 10 points.
The KP40+000 sample complies with the requirements for use as a normal backfill material as
well as for use as a sub-base layer.
Due to the high natural water content, the materials should be well aerated before use.
