Sub-Regional Transport Enchancement Project STEP

Design of Binder Spray Rate for Surface Dressing
Road : Harkpur-Okhaldhunga Road
Contract No : STEP/HO/01
Chainage

1. Spray rate of 80/100 Binder:

1.1Selection of Nominal Chipping size

i.Number of commercial vehicle per lane per day 100

ii.Road surface hardness Normal

iii.Selected nominal chipping size mm. 20

1.2 Determining the overall weighting factor "F"

Description Value/Type Factor

i.Traffic Level Light 1

ii.Climatic condition Temperate 0

iii.Existing surface Untreated or Prime Surface 6

iv.Type of chippings Cubical 0

v.Overall weighting factor F 7

1.3 Determing average least dimension (ALD) of chipping

A. Using nomogram

Median size of chippings mm 16.3

Flakiness index of chippings 15.03

Based on median size and flakiness index,ALD from nomogram 11.9

B. Manual Measurement

ALD of 200 Sample measured manually 12.5

ALD Value Used 11.9

1.4 Determing the basic bitumen spray rate

Method "A"(Using formula)

R=0.625+(F*0.023)+(0.0375+(F*0.0011))*ALD kg/m2 1.32

Method "B"(Using nomogram)

Average least dimension "ALD". 11.9

Overall weighting factor "F" 7

From nomogram basic rate of spray Bitumen "R" kg/m2 1.3

 Form P 5

From method "A" & "B" use lesser one "R"kg/m2 1.30
1.5 Actual Design spray rate for deffirent terrain RD kg/m2

Basic spray rate"R" kg/m2(for Incresed durability for RD=R*1.08 Spread rate for Penetration
Type of terrain MC 3000) kg/m2 grade binder(RD*.9) kg/m2
i.Uphill grade>3%
R*0.9 1.17 1.26 1.14
ii.Downhill
grade>3% R*1.1 1.43 1.54 1.39
iii.Flat or Average
R*1 1.30 1.40 1.26

Specific Gravity of Bitumen 1.037

Spray Rate of 80/100 Bitumen in L/m2 1.219

Spraying Temperature of Binder( o C) 175

Specific Gravity of Bitumen at spraying temperature 0.947

Binder Spray rate after Temperature Correction L/m2 1.287

Add 10% cutter by volume for workability L/m2 i.e 0.143

Actual Spray Rate of Bitumen Binder in L/m2 1.361
