    Pavement

    ⮚ A road pavement is a structure which have several


    layers bounded together placed on the sub grade to
    provide a smooth riding surface for the vehicle . Ex:-
    Cement concrete road, bituminous road etc.
    ⮚ Pavement should have good flexural strength and
    rigidity
    ⮚ It also protect the sub grade from surface water
    4

    Different component of pavement

    1. SURFACE COURSE
    2. BASE COURSE
    3. SUB BASE COURSE
    4. SOIL SUBGRADE
    5
    6

    1. SURFACE COURSE
    ⮚ Surface course is also known as wearing course
    ⮚ It is top most/upper layer of the pavement
    ⮚ It's thicknessgenerally25-50mm
    2. BASE COURSE
    ⮚ It provides or works as a support layer to the surface
    course
    ⮚ It transfer loads from wearing course to sub base course
    ⮚ Minimum thickness of base course is 100mm
    7

    1. SUB BASE COURSE


    ⮚ It works as a support layer othe surface course to the
    base course
    ⮚ It is an intermediate and have function similar to base
    course
    ⮚ It consist of broken stone , broken brunt bricks.
    ⮚ It improves the bearing capacity of soil sub grade
    2. Soil sub grade
    ⮚ foundation for the road pavement.
    ⮚ It is made of locally available natural soil
    8

    Purpose of pavement

    ⮚ It provides smooth surface.


    ⮚ It also protect the soil sub grade from surface
    sub grade.
    ⮚ Pavement transfer the load which is coming
    from vehicle to soil sub grade.
    ⮚ The main purpose is to carry heavy wheel loads
    of vehicular traffic.

    tYPes oF PaveMent

    1. FLEXIBLE PAVEMENT
    2. RIGID PAVEMENT
    10
    11

    FleXiBle PaveMent

    ⮚ pavement are generally designed for 15 years


    or more
    ⮚ In this pavement, pavement layers have low or
    negligible flexural strength and rigidity
    ⮚ These Loads are transfer from grain to the lower
    layers from upper layers.
    12

    Advantages of flexible pavement


    ⮚ Initial cost is low.
    ⮚ The flexible pavement is smooth.
    ⮚ Repair of flexible pavement is easy.
    ⮚ Addition thickness added any time
    ⮚ Traffic is open just after the construction of flexible pavement.
    Disadvantages of flexible pavement

    ⮚ Limited flexibility
    ⮚ Higher maintenance cost.
    ⮚ Shorter life span under heavy use
    ⮚ Damage by oil and shorter chemicals
    13

    Components of flexible pavement

    1. Seal coat
    2. Surface course
    3. Tack course
    4. Binder course
    5. Prime coat
    6. Base course
    7. Sub-base course
    8. Sub grade
    14

    1. Seal coat
    This is a very thin treatment that is applied to the
    surface In order to give a skid resistance and
    waterproof finish.

    2. Tack course
    It is a low viscous bitumen emulsion
    (60%bitumen+40% kerosene).A tack coat is an
    adhesive material applied Between layer of asphalt
    concrete that is laid down for road construction
    15

    3. Binder course
    This is a very thin treatment that is applied to
    the surface In order to give a skid resistance
    and waterproof finish.

    4. Prime coat
    viscosity asphalt to a granular base in
    preparation for an initial layer (or surface course
    layer)of asphalt
    16

    Construction of layers of flexible pavement


    Surface

    Construction of sub grade


    ⮚ Removal of top soil(if not suitable for sub grade or to Match
    the level)
    ⮚ Removal of vegetation and other harmful material.Lay down
    the soil in layer of 266 mm (max.)
    ⮚ Compaction of layer(after compaction max. depth should be
    200 mm)
    ⮚ Further layer of soil.
    ⮚ Compaction of layer
    17

    Construction of sub-base course

    ⮚ Sub-base layer is constructed on the top of the prepared


    sub grade.
    ⮚ The sub base material is spread to uniform thickness and
    specific cross slope.
    ⮚ The moisture content of the material is check And
    additional quantity of water required to Bring up to the
    optimum moisture content is sprinkled at a uniform rate.
    ⮚ The loose sub base layer is compacted by roller.
    18

    Rigid pavement

    ⮚ These Pavements have high flexural strength and rigidity.


    ⮚ These pavements are made of Portland cement concrete
    (p.c.c)
    ⮚ These roads are designed for 30 years or more
    19

    Conclusion

    ⮚ In this way load transfer mechanism occurs.


    ⮚ Almost 95% pavement are flexible pavements.
    ⮚ Therefore , flexible pavements are only placed Where
    under lying strata has good load bearing capacity
    properties.
