    Reference Standard

     MOSRT&H
     IS-10262
     IRC-44

    MATERIALS AND MIX PROPORTION


     Aggregate Proportions
     PQC Mix Design for 1 Cum.

    BATCHING & MIXING


    For the batching and mixing of PQC, RMC plants capacity of batching plant and laying
    speed of paver shall be maintained as per clause 602.9.1 and 602.9.3 of MORH
    specifications under good supervision. Batching & Mixing shall be done as per design
    mix proportions in RMC Plant.
    PROCEDURE OF PAVEMENT QUALITY
    CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION
     If the DLC is found damaged at any place or it has cracks wider than 10
    mm, it shall be repaired wit fine cement concrete or bituminous concrete
    before laying of the separation membrane.
     The laying of PQC by paver with Mechanized or Manually method.
     As per MORTH clause 602.11, we carry out trial length of 100 mts
    (Minimum) before executing the PQC laying for permanent works. And
    finishing of the PQC laying should be completed in 120 Minutes after the
    addition of water in the batching plant.as per clause 602.9.4.2 of MORTH
    specification.
     A Separation Membrane shall be used between the PQC and DLC.
    Separation Membrane shall be 125 micron thick laid flat without creases.
    Prior to laying of Separation, it shall be ensured that the position is
    correct, the same is clean of dirt or other extraneous materials and free
    from any damage.
     The temperature of concrete should be between 5 to 30 Degree centigrade
    to be maintained at the time laying.
     The ambient temperature shall not be more than 35-degree centigrade to
    maintain at the time of laying of PQC as per clause 602.7.2.
     FRL of PQC shall be maintained by guide wires/ shuttering on both sides
    as per approved drawings.
     Transporting of concrete shall be done by dumper/transit mixtures after
    completion of batching and mixing.
     As shown in drawings of Contraction Joint, Mild steel round bars
    confirming IS: 432 & IS: 1139 shall be used as Dowel bars as per Drawings.
    Dowel bars shall be supported on cradles/dowel chairs to hold the position
    in mid with the tolerance of + 20 mm. Dowel bars shall be covered by a
    thin plastic sheath for at least 2/3 of the length or half plus 50 mm.
     As shown in drawings of Longitudinal Joint, Fe 415 / 500 deformed steel
    bars confirming IS: 1786 shall be used.
     Workability of Concrete shall be 25 + 15 mm at the time of placing or it
    shall be modified depending upon the site requirements.
     Surface vibrator shall be used to level the top and after completion of
    finishing works, texturing works shall be start with texture brush without
    delay.
     Immediately after the surface texturing, the surface and sides of slab shall
    be cured by spraying curing compound to prevent against evaporation
    losses.
     Stopper shall be provided at the end of the construction of day.

    JOINTS IN PQC
    The location and type of joints shall be shown in the drawing and it shall be constructed
    as per functional requirements as described as under.

    Transverse joints: Transverse joints shall be Expansion and Contraction Joints.


    Expansion joint shall be used where cement concrete pavement is designed with
    Structures like Box Culverts, Bridges, etc. The Contraction Joint shall be provided at
    interval of 4.5 m of slab. The Contraction joint shall be cut as soon as possible as the
    concrete has undergone initial hardening by mechanical sawn joint groove, 3 to 5 mm
    wide 1/4 or 1/3 depth of slab. Before opening the traffic, Contraction joint shall be
    widened 10 to 11 mm and 20 mm depth to apply Poly sulphaid sealant.
    Longitudinal joints: The Longitudinal joints shall be provided throughout the lane
    axis of paving width where continuous groove or key / tie bars are provided. The groove
    may be cut after final set of the concrete at least 1/3 depth of slab. Before opening the
    traffic Longitudinal joint shall be widened 6 to 8 mm and 15 mm depth to apply Poly
    sulphid sealant as shown in drawings.

    SURFACE TEXTURE
    Surface texture are very important in pavement quality concrete (PQC) Surface texture
    shall be measured by sand patch method as per MOSRT&H specifications before
    opening the traffic.

    CURING OF PQC
    The next day of laying the surface shall be covered by moist hessian clothes or pond
    curing or other any other suitable method. The surface of PQC shall be kept damp
    minimum 14 days.

    PRECAUTIONS FOR PQC


    CONSTRUCTION
     Care shall be taken for workability of concrete.
     Surface texturing shall be done before hardening of the concrete.
     Curing of PQC is most essential to prevent cracks.
     Joint construction shall be under good supervision to prevent spall of
    concrete.

    QUALITY CONTROL & ASSURANCE


    6 cubes and 6 beams shall be cast to assure the design compressive and flexural strength.
    Tolerance in surface level for PQC shall be +5 mm to -5 mm. Texture depth shall meet
    criteria as per MOSRT&H Table 600-2. Concrete slump value shall be 25 + 15 mm.14
    Health, safety and environment
    All employees working within the limit of this project shall follow the guidelines/rules &
    regulations as mentioned in HSE PLAN.
