ROAD OR PAVEMENT

Road is an open, generally public way for the passage of vehicles, people, and
animals.
Road pavements deteriorate over time due to
 The impact of traffic, particularly heavy vehicles.
 Environmental factors such as weather, pollution.
FUNCTIONS
 One of the primary fuction is load distribution. It can be characterized by the
tire loads, tire configuration, repetition of loads, and distribution of traffic
across the pavement, and vehicle speed.
 Pavement material and geometric design can affect quick and efficient
drainage.

6
 TYPES OF PAVEMENTS
FLEXIBLE PAVEMENTS:
 Flexible pavements consisting of a mixture of asphaltic or bituminous material
and aggregates placed on a bed of compacted granular material of appropriate
quality in layers over the subgrade. Water bound macadam roads and stabilized
soil roads with or without asphaltic toppings are examples of flexible pavements.
 The design of flexible pavement is based on the principle that for a load of any
magnitude, the intensity of a load diminishes as the load is transmitted
downwards from the surface by virtue of spreading over an increasingly larger
area, by carrying it deep enough into the ground through successive layers of
granular material. The strength of subgrade primarily influences the thickness of
the flexible pavement.

7
RIGID PAVEMENTS:
 Rigid pavements, though costly in initial investment, are cheap in long run
because of low maintenance costs. Concrete roads can withstand extreme
weather conditions – wide ranging temperatures, heavy rainfall and water
logging.
 The design of rigid pavement is based on providing a structural cement concrete
slab of sufficient strength to resists the loads from traffic.
 The rigid pavement has rigidity and high modulus of elasticity to distribute the
load over a relatively wide area of soil.

4. Surface Course

 CONSTRUCTION OF SUBGRADE
Subgrade is present at the top of the embankment or the fill.

Construction Method –
 The subgrade is constructed by spreading the loose soil and compacting the same
at optimum moisture content of the soil in layer.
 Subgrade is constructed uniformly transversely across the width of the pavement.
 The sand bed is prepared in 3 layers – 200mm, 150mm, 150mm. i.e., overall
500mm depth.
 The other info include OMC should always be maintained by sprinkling requisite
quantity of water. The final sectioning should be done to proper camber, gradient
and superelevation with the help of template and strings.
 The dressed surface should be properly consolidated by rolling with power road
roller of minimum 80KN-100KN capacity.
10
THE SAND BED IS PREPARED WITH 500MM DEPTH

11
 QUALITY CONTROL FOR SUBGRADE

IRC and MORTH have suggested the number of tests to be conducted:

 Minimum of one moisture content test is to be carried out per 250 m²

area.
 Minimum of density test per 500 m² area on each compacted area.

12
THE DRAIN IS PREPARED TO FILTER OUT THE WATER
FROM CARRIAGE WAY THROUGH FILTER MEDIA

FILTER MATERIAL OF SIZE 8MM USED WITH GEOTEXTILE

14
 CONSTRUCTION OF SUB BASE COURSE
(GRANULAR SUB BASE)

Materials – Crushed stone aggregate, gravel, coarse sand, moorum.

Construction Method –
 GSB layer is constructed on the top of the prepared subgrade.
 The sub-base material is spread to uniform thickness and specific cross slope
using a motor grader by adjusting the blade of grader.
 The moisture content of the material is checked and additional quantity of water
required to bring up to the optimum moisture content is sprinkled at a uniform
rate.
 The loose GSB layer is compacted by roller.
 Rolling is done starting from lower edge and proceeding towards the center,
rolling speed is limited to less than 5 Kmph. 15
AFTER THE SAND BED IS PREPARED, A GRANULAR
SUB-BASE(GSB) LAYER IS PREPARED OF 200MM.

16
 CONSTRUCTION OF BASE COURSE
(WET MIX MACADAM)

Materials – Hard crushed aggregates and adequate proportion of water mixed

thoroughly in a mixing plant.
Construction Method –
 WMM mix is prepared in a mixing plant. A WMM base shall consists of laying
and compacting clean crushed, graded aggregates and granular materials
premixed with water, to a clean mass on a prepared sub-base/base of existing
pavement, where thickness not less than 75mm.
 The WMM mix is transported to the site and spread using self propelled type
paver finisher machine.
 WMM layer is compacted using a vibratory roller of minimum static weight of
10 tonnes and compacted thickness in less than 200mm. After the WMM layer
is dried for at least 24 hours in dry weather.
17
A WET MIX MACADAM (WMM) IS PREPARED OVER GSB, OF
250MM BY GRADER. IT CONTAIN 40MM LARGE GRAVEL, 12MM
SMALL AND DUST PARTICLE TO FILL THE VOID.

18
QUALITY CONTROL FOR WMM

 Los Angeles abrasion value: less than 40%

 Aggregate impact value: less than 30%
 Combined flakiness and elongation index: less than 30%
 MORTH have suggested that minimum of one set of aggregate
impact, flakiness index and elongation index tests are to be
conducted per 200 m³ of aggregate and minimum of one
density test per 500 m² on each compacted layer.

19
BINDER COURSE
DENSE BITUMINOUS MACADAM MIX (DBM)

Dense bituminous macadam mix is mainly used as binder course for roads having much higher
number of commercial vehicles.

Materials – coarse and fine aggregates, bitumen and additives are used.
Fine aggregates – Fine aggregates passing through 2.36mm and retain on 75 micron IS sieve.
Coarse aggregates – Coarse aggregates include crushed rock , gravels and other hard
materials retain on 2.36mm sieve.
Bitumen – Bitumen of penetration grade complying with IS specification

20
A DENSE BITUMINOUS MACADAM IS PREPARED OF 100MM

21
22
WEARING COURSE
(BITUMINOUS CONCRETE)

Materials – Coarse and fine aggregates, filler in suitable

proportions mixed with binder.
Bitumen – Bitumen of suitable penetration grade 30/40 to
80/100 as per BIS specification for paving bitumen IS:73.
Filler- Stone dust, cement hydrated lime, fly ash etc.

Construction – After spreading by paver finisher, the mix

shall be throughly compacted by rolling with a set of
rollers moving at a speed of not more than 5 Kmph.
