Coffer dams are temporary structures built to exclude water from an area where permanent structures will be constructed. They allow construction to occur in dry conditions. There are several types of coffer dams depending on the depth of water, soil conditions, and available materials. Earthfill coffer dams use earthen embankments for shallow water, while more complex designs like braced sheet pile or cellular coffer dams are needed for deeper waters. Properly designed coffer dams prevent leakage and ensure the enclosed area remains dry for construction work.

Pavement design considers factors like traffic loads, material properties, environment, and failure criteria to determine layer thickness to support loads over the design life.
The document provides an overview of the history and design of road construction. It discusses how the earliest roads date back to ancient civilizations like the Romans and Egyptians. Modern highway construction began in the mid-20th century. There are two main types of pavements - flexible (asphalt) and rigid (concrete). Flexible pavements are designed to distribute loads through layers to the subgrade, while rigid pavements transmit loads through slab action. The document then goes into details on the layers, materials, and failure modes of both pavement types.
Metro Manila, the Philippines, serving as the junction between the South Luzon Expressway (SLEx) and Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA). It is also an interchange between the 2 train lines of Metro Manila, the MRT-3, which is over EDSA, and the PNR Metro Commuter, beside SLEx.
Highway pavement failures can occur due to defects in materials or construction methods, inadequate drainage, excessive traffic loads, environmental factors like rainfall, or poor subgrade stability. Flexible pavement failures present as potholes, cracks, ruts, and depressions. The most common type of failure is alligator cracking caused by repeated loads or moisture damage. Other failures include consolidation of layers forming ruts, shear cracking, longitudinal cracks from frost or settlement, and reflection cracks from overlays not bonding to the lower layer. Maintaining adequate subgrade strength, drainage, and pavement thickness can help prevent failures.

It also recommends approaches for repairing different levels of distress severity.
The document discusses the construction of subbase for highway flexible pavements. It begins by explaining that flexible pavements are composed of layers that distribute loads, with the subbase layer located between the base course and subgrade. The subbase functions to structurally support loads, prevent intrusion of fines, improve drainage, minimize frost damage, and provide a work platform. It then describes the materials and testing requirements for subbase construction, as well as the steps for spreading, compacting, and testing the subbase to ensure it meets density specifications before additional layers are placed.
This document is a seminar report on advanced pavement design submitted to the Head of the Civil Engineering Department at World College of Technology & Management. It provides an introduction to pavement design, describing the requirements and types of pavements including flexible, rigid, and composite pavements. It also outlines the functions of individual pavement layers such as the surface course, binder course, base course, sub-base course, and sub-grade. The report concludes by stating that a pavement design report presents all analyses, data, policies and considerations used to structurally design a pavement.
This document discusses the basics of flexible and rigid pavements. Flexible pavements are composed of layers including a surface course made of asphalt concrete and underlying layers such as a base course and sub-base course. Rigid pavements have a surface course made of Portland cement concrete that deflects very little under loading. Both pavement types are designed to distribute loads through their layers to the subgrade.
This document discusses various types of pavement distress and maintenance. It begins by outlining different types of distress that can occur in flexible and rigid pavements such as alligator cracking, rutting, longitudinal cracking, and joint spalling. It then describes various maintenance activities like patching and overlaying to address these distresses. Evaluation methods like the Benkelman beam test are also covered. Strengthening techniques for pavements include different types of overlays to support increased loads. Proper design and construction of pavement layers is emphasized to prevent failures.

Rail transport is one of the important modes of transport in India. Now a days we
see that there are railways that are present for the long as well as short distance
travelling which makes the life of the people easier. When compared to other
means of transport, a railway is the cheapest means of transport. The maintenance
of the railway database also plays a major role in the smooth running of this
system. The Online Train Ticket Management System will help in reserving the
tickets of the railways to travel from a particular source to the destination.

Sri Guru Hargobind Ji - Bandi Chor Guru.pdfBalvir Singh
Sri Guru Hargobind Ji (19 June 1595 - 3 March 1644) is revered as the Sixth Nanak.
• On 25 May 1606 Guru Arjan nominated his son Sri Hargobind Ji as his successor. Shortly
afterwards, Guru Arjan was arrested, tortured and killed by order of the Mogul Emperor
Jahangir.
• Guru Hargobind's succession ceremony took place on 24 June 1606. He was barely
eleven years old when he became 6th Guru.
• As ordered by Guru Arjan Dev Ji, he put on two swords, one indicated his spiritual
authority (PIRI) and the other, his temporal authority (MIRI). He thus for the first time
initiated military tradition in the Sikh faith to resist religious persecution, protect
people’s freedom and independence to practice religion by choice. He transformed
Sikhs to be Saints and Soldier.
• He had a long tenure as Guru, lasting 37 years, 9 months and 3 days
2. • Types of Flexible Pavements
• The following types of construction have been used in flexible pavement:
• Conventional layered flexible pavement,
• Full - depth asphalt pavement, and
• Contained rock asphalt mat (CRAM).
• Conventional flexible pavements are layered systems with high quality expensive
materials are placed in the top where stresses are high, and low quality cheap
materials are placed in lower layers.
• Full - depth asphalt pavements are constructed by placing bituminous layers
directly on the soil sub-grade. This is more suitable when there is high traffic and
local materials are not available.
• Contained rock asphalt mats are constructed by placing dense/open graded
aggregate layers in between two asphalt layers. Modified dense graded asphalt
concrete is placed above the sub-grade will significantly reduce the vertical
compressive strain on soil sub-grade and protect from surface water.
4. • Typical layers of a flexible pavement
• Typical layers of a conventional flexible pavement includes seal coat, surface
course, tack coat, binder course, prime coat, base course, sub-base course,
compacted sub-grade, and natural sub-grade.
• Seal Coat:
• Seal coat is a thin surface treatment used to water-proof the surface and to
provide skid resistance.
• Tack Coat:
• Tack coat is a very light application of asphalt, usually asphalt emulsion diluted
with water. It provides proper bonding between two layer of binder course
and must be thin, uniformly cover the entire surface, and set very fast.
• Prime Coat:
• Prime coat is an application of low viscous cutback bitumen to an absorbent
surface like granular bases on which binder layer is placed. It provides bonding
between two layers. Unlike tack coat, prime coat penetrates into the layer
below, plugs the voids, and forms a water tight surface.
5. • Surface course
• Surface course is the layer directly in contact with traffic loads and generally contains
superior quality materials. They are usually constructed with dense graded asphalt
concrete(AC). The functions and requirements of this layer are:
(a) It provides characteristics such as friction, smoothness, drainage, etc.
(b) Also it will prevent the entrance of excessive quantities of surface water into the
underlying base, sub-base and sub-grade,
• It must be tough to resist the distortion under traffic and provide a smooth and skid-
resistant riding surface,
• It must be water proof to protect the entire base and sub-grade from the weakening
effect of water.
• Binder course
• This layer provides the bulk of the asphalt concrete structure. It's chief purpose is to
distribute load to the base course The binder course generally consists of aggregates
having less asphalt and doesn't require quality as high as the surface course, so replacing
a part of the surface course by the binder course results in more economical design.
6. • Base course
• The base course is the layer of material immediately beneath the surface of binder course
and it provides additional load distribution and contributes to the sub-surface drainage It
may be composed of crushed stone, crushed slag, and other untreated or stabilized
materials.
• Sub-Base course
• The sub-base course is the layer of material beneath the base course and the primary
functions are to provide structural support, improve drainage, and reduce the intrusion of
fines from the sub-grade in the pavement structure. If the base course is open graded,
then the sub-base course with more fines can serve as a filler between sub-grade and the
base course. A sub-base course is not always needed or used. For example, a pavement
constructed over a high quality, stiff sub-grade may not need the additional features
offered by a sub-base course. In such situations, sub-base course may not be provided.
• Sub-grade
• The top soil or sub-grade is a layer of natural soil prepared to receive the stresses from the
layers above. It is essential that at no time soil sub-grade is overstressed. It should be
compacted to the desirable density, near the optimum moisture content.
7. • Failure of flexible pavements:
• Different types of failure encountered in flexible pavements are as follow.
• Alligator cracking or Map cracking (Fatigue)
• Consolidation of pavement layers (Rutting)
• Shear failure cracking
• Longitudinal cracking
• Frost heaving
• Lack of binding to the lower course
• Reflection cracking
• Formation of waves and corrugation
• Bleeding
• Pumping
8. • The major flexible pavement failures are fatigue cracking or Alligator or Map cracking,
rutting, and thermal cracking. The fatigue cracking of flexible pavement is due to
horizontal tensile strain at the bottom of the asphaltic concrete. The failure criterion
relates allowable number of load repetitions to tensile strain and this relation can be
determined in the laboratory fatigue test on asphaltic concrete specimens.
• A rut is a depression or groove worn into a road by the travel of wheels. Rutting occurs
only on flexible pavements as indicated by permanent deformation or rut depth along
wheel load path. Repeated application of load along the same wheel path
resulting longitudinal ruts. Wearing of the surface course along the wheel path
resulting shallow ruts. Two design methods have been used to control rutting: one to
limit the vertical compressive strain on the top of subgrade and other to limit rutting to a
tolerable amount (12 mm normally).
• SHEAR FAILURE CRACKING: Shear failure causes upheaval of pavement material by forming a
fracture or cracking. Followings are the primary causes of shear failure cracking.
• Excessive wheel loading
• Low shearing resistance of pavement mixture.
9.
10. • Longitudinal Cracking: This types of cracks extents to the full thickness of
pavement. The following are the primary causes of longitudinal cracking.
• Differential volume changes in subgrade soil
• Settlement of fill materials
• Sliding of side slopes
• Frost heaving causes upheaval of localized portion of a pavement. The
extent of frost heaving depends upon the ground water table and climatic
condition. Lack of binding to the lower course is when there is lack of
binding between surface course and underlying layer, some portion of
surface course looses up materials creating patches and potholes.
Slippage cracking is one form of this type of failure. Lack of prime coat or
tack coat in between two layers is the primary reason behind this type of
failure.
11. • REFLECTION CRACKING: This type of failure occurs, when bituminous surface
course is laid over the existing cement concrete pavement with some cracks.
This crack is reflected in the same pattern on bituminous surface.
• FORMATION OF WAVES & CORRUGATION: Transverse undulations appear at
regular intervals due to the unstable surface course caused by stop-and-go
traffic.
• BLEEDING: Excess bituminous binder occurring on the pavement surface
causes bleeding. Bleeding causes a shiny, glass-like, reflective surface that
may be tacky to the touch. Usually found in the wheel paths.
• Pumping: Seeping or ejection of water and fines from beneath the pavement
through cracks is called pumping.
