HOW TO CALUCULATE DESIGN OF FLEXIBLE PAVEMENT USING IRC METHOD???
DESIGN OF PAVEMENT USING IRCETHOD:IRC 37:2012
1.DETAILS REQUIRED FOR FLEXIBLE PAVEMENT DESIGN:
A=Initial Traffic after completion road construction (CVPD)
P=Traffic intensity @last traffic count(7days ,24hrsclassified traffic )
r=Annual growth rate of commecial vechicles refer IRC:37 FOR THIS VALUE
OR Take (7.5%for rurual roads,10% for urban roads)
x=Construction periods of roads
n=Design life in years(for National highways=15years)
for express &urban=20years
for other roads=10-15yrs
D=lane distributiom
f=vehicle damage factor
2.DESIGN OF FLEXIBLE PAVEMENT (IRC:37-2012):
N=Cumulative no.of standard AXLE(Msa___million STD AXLE)
N=365*A*((1+r)^n-1/r)*D*F(for D&F values refer IRC:37pg.11&12 table no.1)
were,A=p(1+r)^x in CVPD(commercial vehciles /day)
like ex:A=1200(1+0.075)^2
A=1387CVPD
N=365*1387*(1+0.075)^20-1/0.075)*0.075*3.5
N=57Msa
Now,refer IRC:37-2012 code book for CBR (6%)value table book
Cool
