Design of Rigid Pavement for Oke- Omi Road, Ibadan, Nigeria
نویسندگان
چکیده
Rigid pavements are often preferred to flexible types due their higher durability and ease of maintenance also reduce early road failure increase its longevity. This study redesigned a deteriorated segment Oke-Omi pavement as rigid pavement. The thickness was derived using the American Association State Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) design method. A programme spreadsheet developed facilitate process. sieve analysis result showed that soil poorly graded. has low plasticity index 28.1% (liquid limit 46.2%, plastic 18.1%); Maximum Dry Density Optimum Moisture Content were 1999 g/cm3 10.8% respectively. California Bearing Ratio 48.43% which shows subgrade strength adequate. computed Estimated Single Axle Load (ESAL) for both base year projected 6.74x106 100x106 single axle process yielded 240 mm 380 (2017) (2037) adequate designed road.

متن کاملIs Flexible Pavement Design on the Right Road?
The principles underlying current mechanistic–empirical pavement design methods for fully flexible pavements have changed little in the past 30 years. They generally use linear elastic theory to determine the permissible strain at critical locations in the pavement structure to safeguard the road against excessive fatigue and structural deformation. These criteria are calibrated using performan...
