    G7 Selected Layer G9 Subgrade The Following Results Were Calculated With Elsym5: Foseg4 1.3' V G7

    Uploaded by

    Paulo Gomes
    The document discusses several topics related to pavement design and management: 1. It asks to compare the advantages and disadvantages of the Canadian and South African methods for designing unreinforced jointed rigid pavements, listing four aspects of comparison. 2. It asks to sketch dowel and tie bars in concrete pavement and describe their functions. 3. It asks to describe how stepping or faulting forms in concrete pavements and how it can be prevented. 4. It asks to sketch normal distributions to illustrate the importance of quality control for light pavement structures and the dangers of reducing standards without control. It also asks to name four circumstances where extreme care is needed with light pavements.

    (c) What are the advantages and disadvantages of using the Canadian PCA design

    method for unreinforced jointed rigid pavements in comparison with that of the South
    African mechanistically and risk based method. Give four aspects.
    (d)
    (4)
    (i) Sketch a concrete pavement to show the positions of dowel and tie bars,
    (ii) Describe the function of dowel bars and tie bars.
    4.(a) (iii) Describe how stepping or faulting is formed on concrete pavements, and how this
    can be prevented.

    (b) (5)
    Describe, with the aid of a sketch showing normal distributions of material properties
    and loadings, the importance of applying good quality control on light pavement
    (c)
    structures, and the dangers inherent in reducing standards without adequate control.(3)
    Under v/hat circumstances should extreme care be taken in the use of lighter
    (d) pavement stmctures^Nfame four circumstances.

    (2)
    Name 6 unpaved road defects, and describe how these defects can be avoided at the
    design stage.

    5. Briefly explain the method for predicting rutting as developed by Wolff, and explain how
    it differs from the mechano lattice method.

    What could be done to give the pavement a longer life of 3 million E80s? (6)

    Determine the most economic design over 30 years for the following:
    Alternative A: Construction cost R24 per sq m
    Special maintenance after 10 years @ R8 per sq m
    Recycle after 20 years @ R15 per sq m

    Alternative B: Construction cost R29 per sq m


    Overlay after 20 years @ R12 per sq rn
