Course Objectives:

To study the different types of pavements(highway and airfield) depending upon the mode of transportation, use and structural behaviour.
To understand the concept of consideration of wheel loads, axle loads, wheel-axle configuration and allied aspects as a pre-requisite in the analysis and design of the pavement.
To study the various types of structural responses (stresses and deformations) inducing the pavements due to wheel load and other climatic variations.
To study the various methods of analysis and design of the pavements and its subsequent applications to the various types of pavements.
To study the different types of distresses in pavement, evaluation of the existing pavements using different methods and rehabilitation of the distressed pavements.
To study the construction of the concrete roads and low volume roads.
To study the quality control and quality assurance in the road construction and introduce pavement management system.

Module I

Pavement structure and functional attributes, factors affecting pavement design, types of wheel loads for highways and airports, development of design method for highway and airport pavements. Stresses in flexible pavements, 1-layer, 2-layer, 3-layers theories, EWLF,ESWL Stresses in Rigid pavement: load and temperature stresses, combined stresses.

Module II

Module III

Evaluation and strengthening: flexible and rigid pavement distresses, condition and evaluation surveys, present serviceability index, roughness measurement, Benkelman beam deflections, design of overlays(IRC-81-1997), skid resistance and measurement. 12 Concrete road construction: Mix design, concrete strength, size of aggregates, gradation, and workability, preparation of base form work, placing of reinforcement, compaction, and finishing, curing, joints.

Module IV

Low Cost Roads (Rural Areas) (IRC-SP-20-2002) Classification of low cost roads, construction of low cost roads, stabilization of subgrade, base and its advantages, construction of granular base courses, macadam surface, macadam bases, low cost materials and methods used for highway construction, suitability of different types of roads under different situation. Soils. 05

Module V

Module VI

Introduction to pavement management systems. 02

Course Outcomes:

On successful completion of the course, the students shall be able to:

Understand the structural actions involved in the pavement due to different types of load acting thereon and the various methods of analysis of pavements.
Understand the applications of the analysis in the design of pavements using different methods of pavement design.
Know the different types of distresses occurring in the existing pavements and carry out the structural and functional evaluation of the pavements.
Apply the knowledge of evaluation in pre-empting the failure and to arrive upon the methodology of the rehabilitation of pavements.
Understand the various aspects of the construction of concrete roads and low volume roads.
Understand the pavement management system and quality control and assurance criteria and subsequently, its application in the highway construction.

Theory examination:

Oral Examination:

The oral examination shall be based upon the entire syllabus and the term work.

Term Work:

The term-work shall comprise of the neatly written assignments. The assignments shall be given covering the entire syllabus in such a way that the students would attempt at least three problems and/ or questions on each modules/ sub-modules and contents thereof, further. Distribution of Term Work Marks: The marks of the term-work shall be judiciously awarded depending upon its quality of the term work. The final certification and the acceptance of the term-work warrant the satisfactory and the appropriate completion of the assignments;and further, minimum passing marks to be obtained by the students. The following weightage of marks shall be given for different components of the term work.

Assignments : 20 Marks
Attendance : 05 Marks

Further, while giving weightage of marks on the attendance, following guidelines shall be resorted to. 75%- 80%: 03 Marks; 81%- 90%: 04 Marks; 91% onwards: 05 Marks
