    Design of flexible Pavement for

    CONSTRUCTION OF ROAD FROM NAMKUM TO RING ROAD VIA SADABAHAR CHOWK


    Design by Standard Axle Method
    The design Traffic is considered in terms of the cummulative number of standard axles (in the lane carrying
    maxm. Traffic) to be carried during the design life of the road.It's computation involves estimates of the initial
    volume of commercial vehicles per day, lateral distribution of traffic,the growth rate, the design life in years
    and the vehicle damage factor( no. of standard axle per commercial vehicle)to convert commercial vehicle to
    standard axle.Following equation is used to make the required calculation.
    365xAx[(1+r)n-1]xFxD
    Ns =
    r
    Where,
    Ns= :The cummulative no. of standard axle to be catered during design life
    A= Initial traffic in the year of completion of construction in terms of no. of commercial vehicle per day
    duly modified to account for lane distribution
    r = Annual growth rate of commercial traffic = 5.0% (Clause 4.2.2 of IRC-37:2018)
    n = Design life in years = 15 Years(Clause 4.3.2 of IRC-37:2018)
    F= Vehicle damage factor = 3.9 (Clause 4.4.6 of IRC-37:2018)
    D= Lane Distribution factor = 0.75 (Clause 4.5.1.2 of IRC-37:2018)
    P= Initial Traffic Volume = 858 CVPD
    Computation of initial traffic
    x = no. of Years of Completion = 1.00 Years

    A= P(1+r)x = 857.5 x( 1 + 5.0% ) ^1.0 yr = 900.38

    365 x 900.38 x ( 1 + 5.0% )^15 - 1) x 3.9 x 0.75


    Ns = 5.0%

    = 20.74 msa Say 2030.00


    MSA
    Since the proposed road is Four Lane road and this road connects NH-33 (Namkum) . Vehicles coming from Tata (Jamshedpur)
    and destined towards Khunti, Simdega, Daltonganj will take to this route for shorter journey.This may lead to tremendous
    increase in vehicular traffic on the road.Present Traffic on the road doesn't reflect the actual scenario after construction of the
    Road. It will be wise to design the crust for traffic count of 30 msa.
    Design effective CBR = 5.0%

    The Thickness of Base and Sub Base layers of Pavement has been worked out from Plate-1 of IRC:37-2018

    Thickness (mm) Bituminous Surfacing


    CBR msa
    GSB Base Course DBM(mm) BC (mm)
    5.0% 30.00 200 250 115 40

    Accordingly following Crust composition is being proposed :-


    Coarse Graded GSB Gr-I = 200 mm
    WMM = 250 mm
    DBM = 115 mm
    BC = 40 mm
    605 mm
    Following Crust composition is being proposed in Strengthening Part :-
    Thickness of Existing Crust = 200 mm av.
    WMM = 250 mm
    DBM = 105 mm
    BC = 40 mm
    595 mm

    Verification of Adequacy of thickness of Layers
    (i) Calculation of Allowable Horizontal Strain in Bituminous Layer (Ɛt) :-
    As Per Clause 6.3 of IRC:37-2018
    Resilient Modulus of SubGrade = 10*CBR For CBR Upto 5 %
    = 17.6*(CBR)^0.64 For CBR > 5 %
    Hence Resilient Modulus of Sub Grade Soil = 10 x 5.0
    = 50.00 Mpa
    Resilient Modulus of UnBoundSub Base and Base Layer (Clause7.2.3 of IRC:37-2018)
    = 0.2( h^0.45)*MR SubGrade
    Where
    h = Thickness of Sub Base and Base Layer = 450 mm
    Hence MR SubBase and Base = 0.2 x ( 450 )^0.45 x 50.0
    = 156.30 Mpa
    Poisson's Ratio: µ = 0.35
    = 3000 Mpa at 35 c 0
    Resilient Modulus of BC and DBM for VG40 Grade Bitumen
    (Table 9.2 of IRC :37-2018)
    Assuming 90% (Traffic >20msa)Reliability Allowable Horizontal Strain in Bituminous Layer can be obtained from
    the following Equation
    Nf = 3.89
    0.5161*C*10-04x[1/Ɛt] *[1/MR]0.854 (Eq.3.3 of IRC:37-2018)
    Where
    Nf = Fatigue Life in no. of Standard Axle = 30.0 x 10^6
    From Eq.3.3
    30000000 = 0.5161 X 2.35 x ( 0.0001 x [1/Ɛt]3.89 x ( 1 / 3000 )^0.854
    = 1.3E-07 x [1/Ɛt]3.89
    Allowable Ɛt = 0.0002031
    The Computed Horizontal Tensile Strain From IITPAVE Software comes to 0.0001440 < 0.0002031
    Hence thickness of Bituminous layer is Safe. O.K.
    (i) Calculation of Allowable Vertical Compressive Strain on Sub Grade (Ɛv) :-
    N = 1.41x10-8x[1/Ɛv]4.5337 (Eq.3.1 of IRC:37-2018)
    Ɛv = 0.0007092
    The Computed Vertical Compressive Strain From IITPAVE Software comes to 0.0002473 < 0.0007092
    Hence thickness of Base Course and Sub Base Course layer is Safe O.K.
    Hence the Pavement Composition adopted is Safe.
