Duration of Harvesting Season in Days (From Local Inquiry) t= 75


n= 2
Average Traffic During Non-Harvesting Season T= 976 976

Average increase in Traffic During Harvesting Season (Total Traffic in Peak Season -
Traffic During Non-Harvesting Season) nT = 1952

Average Annual Daily Traffic AADT = T + ((1.2 x nT x t)/365) AADT = 976 + (1.2 x 1952 x 75 ) / 365 = 1457

It is Presumed that road will open for traffic after 1 Year Therefore ADT after 1 year. By
considering 6% growth rate ADT = AADT x (1+ 0.06)^n = 1457 x (1.06) ^ 1 = 1545

For Pavement Design Consider the Proportionate value of HCV, MCV, SWC out of ADT

Traffic Category T9

The Traffic parameters has been categorized into 9 categories as under :- Subgrade Strength Classes (according to SP-72 -2015)
T1 10,000 to 30,000 ESAL Applications
Quality of Subgrade Class Range ( CBR %)
T2 30,000 to 60,000 ESAL Applications
T3 60,000 to 1,00,000 ESAL Applications Very Poor S1 2
T4 1,00,000 to 2,00,000 ESAL Applications Poor S2 3-4
T5 2,00,000 to 3,00,000 ESAL Applications Fair S3 5-6
T6 3,00,000 to 6,00,000 ESAL Applications Good S4 7-9
T7 6,00,000 to 10,00,000 ESAL Applications Very Good S5 10 - 15
T8 10,00,000 to 15,00,000 ESAL Applications
T9 15,00,000 to 20,00,000 ESAL Applications

From the Soil Test Result Design CBR of Subgrade 2.88%


From the Soil Surveys the Subgrade Strength Class Err:504
Minimum thickness of diffrentis layer required is below:- Existing crust 200 Widening
OGPC with Seal Coat = 20 mm Remaining 200 Over lay
BM = 0 mm Say 200
WMM 225 mm OGPC+ seal coat in full width 20mm
GSB 200 mm Hoda cutting CRM 225mm
Sub grade 300 mm
Total Crust Thickness 725 mm
