    s
    The document summarizes the design of the crust for a bypass construction project in Mehekar Town. It calculates that the cumulative number of standard axles to be catered for in the design is 21 msa based on traffic growth projections. It then determines that with an N value of 21 msa and a CBR of 8%, the total required pavement thickness from IRC guidelines is 577 mm. It proposes a pavement structure of 200 mm GSB, 250 mm WMM, 100 mm BM, and 40 mm BC for a total thickness of 590 mm.

    CONSTRUCTION OF BYE-PASS FOR MEHEKAR TOWN

    DESIGN OF CRUST

    No. of commercial vehicles as per last count P = 708

    Initial traffic in the year of completion of construction in A = P(1+r)x

    terms of no. of commercial vehicles per day

    Where,
    P = No. of commercial vehicles as per last count = 708 Commercial vehicles / Day

    r = Annual growth rate = 7.5% 0.075 = 0.075


    No. of years between last count and the year of
    x= = 2.00 years
    completion of construction

    Therefore, A = 708 x #( ## + 0.075 ) 2

    = 819 Commercial vehicles / Day

    Cummulative number of standard axles to be catered for in the design in terms of msa,

    N = 365 x [(1+r)n - 1) x A x D x F

    Where,

    n = Design Life in years = 15

    F = Vehicle damage factor = 3.5 (As per Table 1, pg. 12 of IRC : 37 - 2001, For plain terrain)

    D = Lane distribution factor = 0.75 (As per cl. 3.3.5.1 of IRC: 37 - 2001)

    = 0.375

    Therefore, N = 365 x ###


    [( + 0.075 ) 15 - 1 ] x 819 x 0.75 x 3.5

    0.075

    = 21.00 msa

    Murum of C.B.R of 8% is to be used in subgrade.

    Therefore, C.B.R considered for pavement thickness calculation is 8%

    Therefore, for N= 21.0 msa

    C.B.R = 8%

    From Plate 2, pg. 35 of IRC:37 - 2001

    Total Pavement thickness


    = 577 mm
    required

    Provide GSB = 200 mm


    WMM = 250 mm

    BM = 100 mm

    BC = 40 mm

    Total = 590 mm
