2016 MAY1. Introduction
14-Siyambalagoda-Omandel Sikurapotha Road is being rehabilitated and improved by Sierra
Construction (Pvt) Ltd under ADB Funded project of rehabilitation improvements of 71km of
rural roads in the Kandy district. Since meeting held on 30% March 2016 at Project Director (1
road Kandy), consultant, and contractor (KA2), it has been decided to carry out concrete
pavement where vertical gradient greater than 12% and agreed by all parties.
Accordingly Pavement design has been revised considering traffic demand, Condition of
ity. Paved width and earth shoulder width of road are
existing road and construction fee
3.0m and 1.0m respectively.
2. Pavement Investigation & Traffic Forecast
According to analysis done under the pavement design of this road (Siyambalagoda -
Omandel Sikurapotha Road), subgrade CBR and Design traffic for a 10 years design life (2016
~ 2025) are taken as 8% and 0.0357 msa(million standard axels) respectively. (For more
detail Refer Detailed Engineering Designs Pavement Design Report - From Ch 0+000 To
03+030 -2016 April- Siyambalagoda - Omandel Sikurapotha Road)
3. Pavement Design
Design Calculation based on Equations given in AASHTO Guide for Design of pavement
structures (1993) .Design calculations are presented in Annex 1.
Concrete overlay with DGAB
Unreinforced Concrete slab on 125 mm dense graded aggregate base (DGAB) was decided
considering traffic demand and subgrade strength. Introduced ABC layer will be act as sub
base layer as well as drainage layer. Design Unreinforced Concrete Slab thickness is 150mm.

Locations where highly deteriorated or damaged existing pavement, should be reconstruct
with given layers by scarifying the existing pavement and compacting formed subgrade to
achieve 95% MDD at modified Procter compaction.Fig. 1~Typical Road Section of concrete Pavement with Dense graded aggregate Base
Concrete overlay over existing Concrete slab.
It has been inspect that existing concrete slabs on following sections were moderately good
condition, Hence, 150mm unreinforced concrete slabs were proposed over existing concrete
as below. Nominal reinforce can be adopt where necessary with Engineer's Approval.

Note
i, Fresh concrete should be placed directly on sound, clean existing slab.
Joints should be placed immediately above the existing joints to prevent reflection of cracking.
fii, Cracked & damaged sections should be treated prior to overlying.
iv. Proper drainage and adequate lateral support (shoulder) should be provided.
v. Subgrade CBR (4day Soaked) should be greater than 8% at Field density in carriageway
section and at 95% of MDD under modified conditions of compaction for widening sections.

Construction of 150 mm thick concrete slab should be carried out as specified in section 900 of
the SSCM Cube crushing strength of slab should be 25 N/mm? at 28 days.
In the event any utility service lines, manholes etc. exist in the proposed rigid pavement area,
the utility lines should be shifted beyond the proposed rigid pavement.
Contraction joints should be formed across the road by saw cutting in a spacing of 5.5 m or
Immediately above existing joints to a depth of 1/4th of the thickness (30-40mm) of the slab
(refer fig 1). Cutting should not be delayed beyond 6 hours of laying concrete and carried out
as soon as the concrete is of sufficient strength to avoid raveling, Initially cut to about 3mm
wide and subsequently widened to accommodate the sealant of minimum width compatible
with properties of sealant.
If the work must stop due to an emergency, machine breakdown or daily work segments,
construction joints should be placed. The smooth lubricated dowel bars shall be installed at
mid depth in the slab & parallel to the surface & center line of the road using 20 mm diameter
bar in a 300 mm center to center spacing(refer fig 2).
Acamber of 2.0% should be maintained on the road surface for the straight sections. In case of
a bend, super elevation should be maintained which varies with the curvature of the center
of the road.
Prior to laying of the concrete pavement the surface of the DGAB/Existing slab shall be cleaned
of extraneous material and over laid with a separating membrane using polythene sheets of
125 microns thickness covering the DGAB layer and the vertical faces. Overlapping of the
separation membrane should be not less than 300mm.
Concrete should be prepared by a batch mix plant, laid and compacted using beam & poker
vibrator machinery and finished rough by means of brooms as per section 901 of the SSCM.
Curing of the laid concrete shall be carried out by spreading coir dust, etc., and regular wetting
fora period not less than 7 days.
This work should be carried out to the required levels, providing suitable drainage measures at
site.
