This document discusses the construction of a flexible pavement on the Paota Road near the District Hospital in Jodhpur, India. It was submitted by an engineering student to the Head of the Civil Department. The document describes the types of highway and pavement construction, including flexible, rigid, and composite pavements. It provides details on the typical cross section of flexible and rigid pavements and the components of flexible pavement, which include the soil subgrade, sub-base, base course, and surface course. The document also discusses testing methods, construction activities, specifications for super elevation and camber, machinery used, and potential causes of pavement failure.

Name of the work:-CONSTRUCTION OF FLEXIBLE


PAVEMENT AT THE PAOTA ROAD NEAR DISTRICT HOSPITAL,JODHPUR.

DEPARTMENT:-PUBLIC WORK DEPARTMENT


(PWD),CITY DIVISION JODHPUR

CONSULTANT:-SHREE CONSTRUCTION PVT.LIMITED

TYPES OF HIGHWAY CONSTRUTION Earth road and Gravel road

Water bound macadam road


Bituminous or black-top roads Cement Concrete road

TYPES OF PAVEMENT
Flexible Pavement

Rigid Pavement

Semi-rigid Pavement
Composite Pavement

TYPICAL CROSS SECTOIN OF FLEXIBLE AND RIGID PAVEMENT

Component of Flexible pavement


Soil subgrade-soil subgrade is a layer of natural

soil to receive the layer of pavement material placed over it. Sub-Base-sub-base course a layer of stabilized soil or selected granular soil. It consists of broken stone, bound or unbound aggregate. Base course-The function of base course is similar to sub base .It also consists of fine aggregate and soil-aggregate mixes.

Surface course-This also known as wearing course. The purpose of wearing course is to give a
smooth riding surface that is dense

Construction Item Executed during Training


o Road Alignment-Design of Super elevation

and Camber o Tests(CBR , Impact) o Earthwork( Embankment, Preparation of sub grade, soil compaction)

Superelevation is

Camber is the slope

provided to counteract the centrifugal force and to reduce the tendency of vehicle to overturn or skid.

provided to the road surface in transverse direction to drain off the rain water from the road surface

Reasons for Providing Camber in Roads


To prevent the entry of water into bituminous layer.
To remove the rain water from the pavement surface as

quickly as possible To allow pavement to get dried soon after the rain. To prevent the entry of surface water into the subgrade soil through pavement.

TESTS DURING TRAINING


CBR Test Impact test for aggregate In-situ density test Specific gravity and water absorption

test

CBR TEST

CBR FORMULA
The C.B.R. value is calculated using the relation:Load sustained by the specimen at 2.5 or 5 mm penetration CBR % = Load sustained by standard aggregate at the corresponding penetration level

x 100

IMPACT TEST
This test is designed to

evaluate the resistance of an aggregate to sudden impact. Since vehicle loads cause impact, this test gives an indication of the performance of aggregates to resist crushing under impact. The test has been standard (IS: 2386 Part IV). The IRC specifications also indicate the minimum acceptable values as per this test.

CAUSE OF PAVEMENT FALIURE


Defect of the quality of material used. Defect in construction method and quality control

during construction. Inadequate surface or subsurface drainage in the locality resulting in the stagnation of water in the pavement layer. Increase in the magnitude of wheel load and number of load repetitions due to increase in traffic volume. Settlement of foundation of embankment of the fill material itself. Environmental factor including heavy rain ,soil erosion, high water table snow fall ,frost actio.
