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 کاملRelative Luminance of Retroreflective Raised Pavement Markers and Pavement Marking Stripes on Simulated Rural Two-Lane Roads
The Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) Turner Fairbank Highway Research Center (TFHRC) is undertaking a research program to study the visibility of retroreflective raised pavement markers (RRPMs). The focus of the initial effort is to determine the relative luminance of RRPMs and pavement markings (PMs) needed to produce adequate guidance on rural two-lane roadways at night. A driving simu...
متن کاملRural Roads
INTRODUCTION Rural Road connectivity is a key component of rural development, since it promotes access to economic and social services, thereby generating increased agricultural productivity, non-agriculture employment as well as non-agricultural productivity, which in turn expands rural growth opportunities and real income through which poverty can be reduced. A study (Fan et al. 1999) carried...
متن کاملEvaluating the Performance of Dowel in PCC Pavement of Roads using ABAQUS Finite Element Software
In Portland Cement Concrete (PCC) pavement of the roads, dowels bar transfers vehicle loading to the unloaded slab. Load Transfer Efficiency (LTE) is used to evaluate dowel bars in PCC pavement. This parameter is defined as the vertical displacement ratio of the loaded slab versus the unloaded slab. In this study, the impact of effective factors (friction coefficient between dowel and concrete ...
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...
