About Training Work

The document summarizes the training completed by the author on bituminous road construction. It discusses that the training took place over 3 km of roadway between Basti and Kalwari in India. The training covered the various steps involved in bituminous road construction including preparing the existing road surface, applying a tack coat, preparing and placing the premix, rolling it for compaction, and achieving the finished surface.

About Training Work

I have completed my summer training from PUBLIC


WORK DEPARTMENT (PWD),CD-1,BASTI

My site for training was from Basti roadway to Kalwari .


Its length was 11.3 km., but I have allotted for a distance
of 3 km.

Training was based on bituminous road construction.


UTTAR PRADESH PUBLIC WORK DEPARTMENT
(UPPWD) is a govt. organization under which the roads and
bridges are constructed. The other public works are also
included in the functions of PWD. It was established in 1854.

It plays a pivotal role in the implementation of government


construction projects

To accelerate the construction of bridges in the state, Uttar


Pradesh State Bridge Corporation was founded in 1973.

In year 2004-05, Uttar Pradesh state highways authority was


established to overcome with problem of pavements in state.
INTRODUCTION

Development of a country depends on the connectivity of various


places with adequate road network.

Roads constitute the most important mode of communication in


areas where railways have not developed much.

India has one of the largest road networks in the world (over 3
million km at present).For the purpose of management and
administration, roads in India are divided into the following five
categories:

National Highways (NH)


State Highways (SH)
Major District Roads (MDR)
Other District Roads (ODR)
Village Roads (VR)
WHAT IS ROAD AND PAVEMENT ?
Road is an open, generally public way for the passage of
vehicles, people, and animals.

Pavement is finished with a hard smooth surface. It helped


make them durable and able to withstand traffic and the
environment. They have a life span of between 20 30 years.

FUNCTIONS

One of the primary functions of pavement is load distribution.


It can be characterized by the tire loads, tire configurations,
repetition of loads, and distribution of traffic across the
pavement, and vehicle speed
TYPES OF PAVEMENTS
There are various types of pavements depending
upon the materials used; a briefs description of all
types is given here

Flexible pavement:
Consists of a layer system of
materials which distribute the
wheel-loads to the sub-grade.
The thickness of individual layer
must be such as to distribute the
loads without permanent
deformation of the material,
thereby presenting an uneven
running surface
Rigid pavement:
Consists essentially of a concrete
slab resting on thin granular
base. The loads and the stress
are distributed over a wide area
of subgrade by the rigidity and
strength of the pavement. The
pavement may be reinforced
or unreinforced, depending on
the designed traffic load.
PROJECT ORGANISATION
It is important that preparation of the surface to be treated and
application of the materials used in the construction of all the
surfacing to be carried out in an organised way to ensure the correct
stages take place at the right time

FIELD STUDIES

stabilized method of upgrading aggregate surfaced
roadways, several field sites were selected.

PROCESS IN BITUMINOUS ROAD
CONSTRUCTION

Preparation of existing road surface

Application of tack coat

Preparation and placing of Premix.

Rolling

Finished surface.
Preparation of existing road
surface
The irregularities are
filled in with premix
chipping at least a
weak before laying
surface course.
In order to achieve
durable road base
course should be
strong.
The existing surface is
prepared by removing
the pot holes or rust.
Application of tack coat
A tack coat is a thin bituminous liquid asphalt, emulsion
or cutback layer applied between HMA pavement lifts to
promote bonding. Adequate bonding between
construction lifts and especially between the existing
road surface and an overlay is critical in order for the
completed pavement structure to behave as a single unit
and provide adequate strength.

Tack coat of bitumen is applied at 6.0 to 7.5 kg per 10


sq.m area.
This quantity may be increased to 7.5 to 10 kg for non
bituminous base.
Preparation and placing of
premix
The premix is prepared in a hot mix plant of a required
capacity with the desired quality control.
The bitumen may be heated upto 150-177 deg c.
If we control the temp during the mixing and the
compaction of great significance in the strength of road.
The total quantity of aggregates used shall be 0.27 cum
per 10 m2 area
The quantity of binder shall be 22.0 kg and 19.0 kg for
10 sq. m area for Type A and Type B surfacing
respectively
Rolling

After placing a mix on the base course it is thoroughly compacted by


rolling.
Breakdown Roller: The first roller behind the screed. It generally
effects the most density gain of any roller in the sequence.
Breakdown rollers can be of any type but are most often vibratory
steel wheel. The initial rolling is done by 8 to 12 tones roller.
Intermediate Roller: Used behind the breakdown roller if
additional compaction is needed. Pneumatic tire rollers are
sometimes used as intermediate rollers because they provide a
different type of compaction (kneading action) than a breakdown
steel wheel vibratory roller. Rolling is done by 15 to 30 tones
having a tyre pressure of 7 kg per sq.cm.
Finish Roller: The last roller in the sequence. Static steel wheel
rollers are almost always used as finishing rollers because they can
produce the smoothest surface of any roller type. The final rolling or
finishing is done by 8 to 10 tonne tandem roller.
Finished surface
The longitudinal undulations should not exceed 8.0 mm
and the number of undulations higher than 6.0 mm
should not exceed 10 in a length of 300 m.
The AC surface should be checked by a 3.0 m straight
edge.
