DO’s

Don’ts

1. Discourage borrow pits along the road; where permitted, ridges of minimum 8 m width should be left at intervals not exceeding 300 m. Small drains should be cut through the ridges to facilitate drainage. 2. The depth of borrow pits should be so regulated that their bottom does not cut an imaginary line having a slope of 1 vertical to 4 horizontal projected from the edge of the final section of the bank, the maximum depth in any case being limited to 1.0 m. 3. Do maintain a camber/ cross fall of 4 percent during construction for effective drainage and prevention of Ponding of water. 4. The area of the embankment foundation should be kept dry. Test the material (soil) for its suitability for use in the embankment at least seven days before commencement of earthwork. Tests should include soil. classification test data and data regarding maximum dry density, OMC, and CBR (soaked and un soaked). 5. For widening of existing embankment start earth work from toe line.

1. Do not allow borrow pits within a distance equal to the height of the embankment subject to a minimum of 1.5 m from the toe of the road embankment. 2. Do not allow borrow pits within 800 m of towns or villages. 3. Do not use unsuitable material for embankment construction. 4. Do not allow construction or other vehicular traffic over the prepared surface of embankment/ sub-grade. 5. Do not place successive layers of embankment until the previous layer has been thoroughly compacted and duly approved by Engineer. 6. Do not allow any damage to works, crops or other property while discharging stagnant water found in embankment foundation. 7. Do not allow dumping of earth from top to widen an existing embankment.

Appropriate Technology and machinary For Earthwork and Subgrade Construction 1. For clearing, grubbing and excavation : Rippers towed by agricultural tractor 2. For hauling of earth : Agricultural tractor-trailer 3. For spreading of soil in layers : Spreading blades attached to agricultural tractor 4. For adding water : Water Bowser towed by agricultural tractor 5. For mixing of soil with water : Agricultural tractortowed disc harrows 6. For compaction in earthwork and : 80-100 kN static smoothsubgrade construction wheeled road roller for compacted thickness of 100 mm.

Methodology 1. Obtain materials from approved sources. The material should be natural sand, moorum, gravel,crushed stone, crushed slag, brick metal, kankar or a combination thereof and it shall conform to grading and physical requirements indicated in Table 401.1 2. The sub-base material should be spread in layers not exceeding 100 mm compacted thickness. If suitable vibratory rollers are available, the compacted thickness of layer can be upto a maximum of 225 mm. 3.When the sub-base material consists of a combination of materials, mixing shall be done mechanically by the mix-in-place method, except for small sized jobs. 4. Each layer shall be uniformly spread and thoroughly compacted. Spreading and compaction shall be carried out as per Clause 401.4.2 of the MORD Specifications. 5. Approval of the Engineer should be obtained for each layer. Such an approval would require surface level and compaction control tests. 6. The earthen shoulders should be constructed simultaneously with the sub-base construction.

DO’s

1. Ensure uniform mixing of GSB material and water by mechanical means like tractor towed implements. 2. Ensure that on clayey sub grades, the percent fines passing 75 micron in the GSB material do not exceed 5 percent. 3. Do provide aggregate plugs at the exposed edges of GSB where extended over the full formation width. 4. Look for soft patches, if any, and rectify them by removing or adding fresh material and compacting the same thoroughly.

Don’ts

1. Do not permit organic or other deleterious materials. 2. Do not use materials, which do not conform to the specified requirements, shall not be used. 3. Do not allow rejected material to remain at site to prevent its reuse. The rejected material shall be marked with lime.

Preparation of Granular Sub base mix using 45% gravelly soil, 35% sand and 20% grade III metal

Construction of Granular Sub base mix using 45% gravelly soil, 35% sand and 20% grade III metal

Gravel associated GSB (mixture of gravelly soil (45%), metal (20%) and sand (35%) is creating lot of problems in execution during rains. It is preferable to opt for GSB without any gravelly soil

Definition of sand and gravel as per Code IS: 1490 – 1987 Sand and gravel are defined as Cohesion less aggregates of angular, sub-angular, subrounded, rounded, flaky or flat fragments of more or less unaltered rocks or minerals. According to the system, gravel is the fraction of the material between 80mm IS sieve size and 4.75mm IS sieve size. Sand is a fraction of the material between 4.75mm IS sieve size and 75 micron IS sieve size.

River gravel along Wankidi vaagu across which is being constructed in km 17/10 of Wankidi Kagaznagar in Adilabad District. This type of material satisfies gravel requirements as per IS code or MORT&H specifications. AIV = 14%. It satisfies grading III of table 400 – 2 for Granular Sub Base

Layer of adsorbed water surrounding a clay particle. Sliding of such particles over one another results in plasticity

Position after 24 hours of adding water

Natural gravelly soil LL = 38%, PI = 18%

Total Absorption of particles indicate the presence of negative charged particles in the gravelly soil. It indicates high PI and LL values. It proves that the above sample is earthen material only but not gravel or moorum. Use of such soil presuming it as gravel is causing damage and poor condition of Village Roads, Major District Roads, State Highways and National Highways. Highway Engineers must be able to differentiate between earth and gravel

GSB using crushed quarry spoils and granite for Pushkaram work in Narsapur in WG Dt. Similar mix is being used as GSB in NHAI works. This type of mix eliminates all problems associated with gravel combinations

Another view of GSB without gravel in Narsapur Drainage: Excellent, CBR: more than 60%

GSB with gravelly soil (45%), stone dust (35%) and metal (20%) also caused problems when executed during rainy season

GSB using gravel with some stone content being done in 4-laning of NH5 in Srikakulam District. Here, it contains lot of fines with high Plasticity Index value. It may give the required CBR but fails in plasticity

GSB with HBG materials as per Grading III of MORD table 400-1. Stone dust and 6mm to 10mm chips are mixed to satisfy the grading. It is producing CBR of more than 30%

1) It coats and bonds loose mineral particles of granular surface 2) It water proofs the surface of the base by plugging capillary or un connected voids 3) It provides adhesion or bond between the granular base and bituminous layers

Methodology for Prime Coat 1. Bituminous primer should be slow setting bitumen emulsion, use of cutback being restricted to areas having sub zero temperature or for emergency operations. 2. The prime coat should be applied only on the top most granular base layer, over which bituminous treatment is to be applied. The granular base surface should be swept clean of dust and loose particles and where required, lightly and uniformly sprinkled with water to moist the surface. 3. The primer should be sprayed uniformly over the dry surface of absorbent granular base, using suitable bitumen pressure distributor or sprayer capable of spraying primer at specified rates and temperature so as to provide a uniformly unbroken spread of primer. Normal temperature range of spraying emulsion should be 20°C to 60°C. The rate of application depends upon the porosity characteristics of the surface to be primed and is given in above table.

DO’s 1. Use slow setting emulsion and restrict the use of cutback to subzero temperature conditions or emergency operations. 2. Use only pressure sprayers. 3. Preferably lay a trial section. 4. The Contractor to demonstrate at a spraying trial to ensure that the equipment is capable of producing a uniform spray.

Don’ts 1. Do not apply primer when the atmospheric temperature in shade is less than 10°C or when the weather is foggy, rainy or windy. 2. Do not allow pouring of primer using perforated cans. 3. Do not allow traffic on primed surface. 4. Do not apply bituminous material to a wet surface.

Methodology for Tack Coat 1. Use a rapid setting bitumen emulsion for applying a tack coat, the use of cutback being restricted to areas having sub-zero temperature or for emergency applications. 2. The surface on which tack coat is to be applied should be clean, free from dust, dirt and any extraneous materials and dry. 3. The surface should be prepared as per sub-section 501. 4. The binder should be sprayed uniformly over the surface using suitable bitumen pressure sprayer capable of spraying bitumen and emulsion at specified rates and temperature so as to provide a uniformly unbroken spread of bitumen emulsion. For smaller jobs, a pressure hand sprayer may be used. Normal range of spraying temperature should be 20°C-60°C in case of emulsion and 50°C-80°C in case of cutback. The rate of application depends upon the type of surface and is given in above Table . 5. The surface should be allowed to cure until all the volatiles have evaporated.

DO’s 1. Plan the work so that no more than the necessary tack coat for the day’s operation is placed on surface.

Remedy all high spots and depressions by removing or adding aggregates. 2. Commence rolling with 80-100 kN rollers (three-wheel or tandem type), beginning from the edge and progressing towards the centre longitudinally. On super elevated portions, rolling should progress from lower to upper edge parallel to centre line of pavement. 3. Correct any irregularities noticed after the roller has passed over the whole area once by loosening the surface and removing or adding the coarse aggregates followed by rolling. Continue rolling till the entire surface has been rolled to desired compaction such that there is no crushing of aggregates and all roller marks have been eliminated. Each pass of roller should overlap not less than one-third of the track made in the preceding pass. 4. Heat bitumen (paving grade S-35 to S-90) to a temperature of 160°C to 180°C and spray uniformly on aggregate layer at the rate of 20 kg per 10 m2 for 75 mm thick layer and 17.5 kg per 10 m2 for 50 mm thick layer. 5. Immediately after application of bitumen, spread 12 mm size key aggregates at a uniform rate of 0.18 cum for 75 mm thickness (0.12 cum for 50 mm thickness) per 10 m2 so as to cover the surface completely and roll. Rolling should continue until the key aggregates are firmly embedded in position and stop moving under roller

Methodology for Bituminous Macadam 1. Prepare the base on which bituminous macadam course is to be laid and shape to the specified lines, grade and cross-section. 2. Apply tack coat over the base preparatory to laying of the bituminous macadam. 3. Bituminous Macadam should be prepared in a Hot Mix Plant of adequate capacity. Ensure manufacturing and rolling temperatures for Bituminous Macadam as specified. 4. Transfer the mixed material quickly to site of work and lay by means of an approved self-propelled mechanical paver. 5. Commence initial rolling with 80-100 kN rollers (three-wheel or tandem type), beginning from the edge and progressing towards the centre longitudinally. On super elevated portions, rolling should progress from lower to upper edge parallel to centre line of pavement. Thereafter, do intermediate rolling with vibratory or pneumatic tyred road rollers. This should be followed by final rolling while the material is still workable.

Methodology for Bituminous Macadam continued 6. Any high spots or depressions noticed after the roller has passed over the whole area once should be corrected by removing or adding premixed material. Rolling should recommence thereafter. Each pass should have an overlap of at least one-third of the track made in the preceding pass. Rolling should be continued till all rolIer marks have been eliminated. 7. For single lane roads no longitudinal joint is required, while for double-lane roads longitudinal joints may be required depending on the paver width. 8. For making longitudinal or transverse joint, cut the edges of the bituminous layer laid earlier to their full depth so as to expose fresh surface and apply a thin coat of binder. Lay adjacent new layer and compact flush with the existing layer. 9. Cover the bituminous macadam with the wearing course within a period of 48 hours. If there is any delay in providing wearing course the bituminous macadam surface should be covered with a seal coat before opening to traffic.

Methodology for OGPC

1. Mixing should be thorough to ensure that a homogenous mixture is obtained. The temperature of bitumen at the time of mixing should be in the range of 150° C to 163° C and that of aggregates 155°C to 163°C, provided that the difference between the temperature of aggregate and the binder should not exceed 14°C. If modified bitumen is used, temperature should be as recommended in Subsection 512. The temperature at the time of discharge of the mixture should be between l30°C and 160°C. 2. The premixed material shall be spread on the road surface with rakes. 3. Commence rolling with 80-100 kN rollers (three-wheel or tandem type), beginning from the edge and progressing towards the centre longitudinally. (On super elevated portions, rolling should progress from lower to upper edge parallel to centre line of pavement). Continue rolling operations till a smooth uniform surface is achieved and all roller marks are eliminated. Each pass should have an overlap of at least one-third of the track made in the preceding pass. 4. Correct any high spots or depressions noticed after the roller has passed over the whole area once by removing or adding premixed material and recompacting. 5.
