Concrete Block Pavement for Low Volume Roads
Concrete block pavement (CBP) is a durable pavement for carrying light as well as heavy loads, and it is being used widely for construction of city streets, parking places, gas stations, container stacking yards, residential areas and low volume roads. This paper presents the findings of a laboratory investigation on structural behaviour of CBP. Plate load and Accelerated Pavement tests were ca...
متن کاملCell-Filled Concrete Roads an Alternative to Rural Roads – A Case Study in Karnataka
The main role of the present work is to conduct pavement performance evaluation of Cell Filled Concrete road constructed in Sidlaghatta taluk of Chickaballapura District in Karnataka. The study area selected is from Anur Hunasenahalli to T-07 (2.16 km) in Sidlaghatta Taluk. The above selected road is categorized under Village Roads (VR) and is constructed under the Technology Demonstration Proj...
متن کاملStructural Performance of Plastic Cell filled Concrete Block Pavement for Low Volume Roads
This paper presents a systematic full scale field study on the structural performance of Plastic Cell filled Concrete Block Pavement (PCCBP) for different cell thicknesses subjected to live traffic conditions. Five test sections of various thicknesses viz., 50 mm, 80 mm, 100 mm, 120 mm and 150 mm of PCCBP over 100 mm thick water bound macadam (WBM) sub-base layer has been constructed at the app...
متن کاملSafety Performance Evaluation of Concrete Barriers on Curved and Superelevated Roads
Highways are comprised of tangent and curved sections. It has been established that there is a difference in safety between these types of sections. Roadside safety hardware, however, is not specifically designed or tested to address the differences in behavior that may be associated with placement of curves relative to tangent sections. The differences in safety performance may be negligible d...
متن کاملA Novel Concrete-Based Sensor for Detection of Ice and Water on Roads and Bridges
Hundreds of people are killed or injured annually in the United States in accidents related to ice formation on roadways and bridge decks. In this paper, a novel embedded sensor system is proposed for the detection of black ice as well as wet, dry, and frozen pavement conditions on roads, runways, and bridges. The proposed sensor works by detecting changes in electrical resistance between two s...
