observed of : er traffic flow. If the amber times required are 4 and 3 seconds
eet is for two roads based on approach speeds, design the signal timings by
Fiat and encle ‘method. Assume an average headway of 2.5 seconds during green
period.
[8]
The average normal flow of traffic on cross roads A and B during design period
are 450 and 300 PCU per hour, the saturation flow values he) these roads re
estimated as 1500 and 1250 PCU per hour respectively. The all re me required
for pedestrian crossing is 12 Secs. Design a two phase traffic signal by Webs
3. Whar a traffic rotary? Explain briefly the various design factors that are to be
considered in a rotary intersection design.

4. What are the relative advantages and disadvantages of overpass and underpass?
Draw a neat sketch of full cloverleaf and show the movement of traffic.
The C.B.R test carried out on a sub grade soil gave the following readings.
arc as follows:
(i) sandy soil with CBR = 10% (ii) Soil Kankar mix with CBR value = 25%
(iii) Broken stone and gravel with CBR = 90%
=3.3x 10°Kg/em?
=0.15
Modulus of subgrade reaction =2.5 Kg/em?
Thickness of concrete slab = 18cm
Radius of loaded area =10cm
Wheel load =4100 Kg
10. A cement concrete pavement has a thickness of 18 cm and has two lanes of 7.2
meters with a
longitudinal joint. Design the dimensions and spacing of the tie bar. Use the
following data:
© Allowable working stress in steel in tension = 1750 Kg/cm?
Unit wt. of concrete = 2400 Kg/cm?
Coeft. of friction= 1.5
Allowable bond stress in concrete = 24.6 K g/cm?
11. Explain the IRC method of flexible pavement and Rigid pavement design.
IS. What are the various types of failures in Flexible pavement and Rigid
Pavements?
Explain the causes.
