In highway engineering, subbase is the layer of aggregate material laid on the subgrade, on which the base course layer is located. It may be omitted when there will be only foot traffic on the pavement, but it is necessary for surfaces used by vehicles. Subbase is often the main loadbearing layer of the role is to spread the load evenly over the subgrade.

Posted in Highway Engineering | Email This Post | For weak and poor quality subgrade, there is a need to increase the thickness of pavement to compensate for it. In order to save cost for subbase which is relatively expensive, the concept of capping layer is introduced in which capping materials of cheap but strong nature are used to cap the weak subgrade. In this way, the thickness of ...

Bituminous Materials Bituminous material, or bitumen in the form of asphalt, is one of the major highway construction materials used. Asphalt is normally a residue product from the distillation of crude oil and, as refined, is a heavy, viscous material that is semisolid at normal atmospheric temperatures. By controlled processing or blending desired viscosity and hardness characteristics can ...

It acts as a separating layer b/w subgrade and road base. By this it prevent the two layers from mixing up. b. Characteristics of materials used in Sub Base: The subgrade material should be clean and free from organic matter and should be able to be compacted by roller, to form stable subbase. The material should have following characteristic.

Flexible paving consists of materials applied in layers directly over the subgrade to which the traffic loads are distributed. To prevent permanent deformation, and therefore an uneven running surface, the thicknesses of individual layers must be capable of distributing such loads. The subgrade is compacted with the subbase on top of it. On top of this is laid the surfacing which is made up ...
