Good Evening Sir... Sir, As per IRC 37: 2018, The unbound base layer consists of wet mix macadam, water bound macadam, crusher run macadam, reclaimed concrete, etc., conforming to MoRTH Specifications[23]. Wet mix macadam may also consist of blast furnace slag mixed with crushed stone meeting the MoRTH Specifications. The thickness of the unbound granular layer shall not be less than 150 mm except for the crack relief layer placed over cement treated base for which the thickness shall be 100 mm. My query is that we only changed the name from WMM to Crack relief layer and thickness from 150 mm to 100 mm where CTB was used below it, but what properties have changed in WMM or Crack relief layer as no specifications have been changed while converting WMM to crack relief layer. And also the FDD has been given a minimum of 100% of MDD for Crack relief layer , so upto what extent (percentage of compaction) we can achieve at site.

[@SatishIITR]

Crack relief layer has the same gradation as WMM and therefore all physical tests as required for WMM should be applicable to Crack relief layer also ( I uploaded one video on Crack Relief Layer also). Further there is no concession given in the code for field density in the case of crack relief Layer also. 100 percent is needed.

Sir, in 7:50 when they are considering 20kn on one wheel..finally 20*4 =80 kn..... Why haven't they considered the axle load......b/w wheels.

[@SatishIITR]

Although your question is not very clear to me, yet I would say that the analysis is based on the wheel load and not the axle load.

[@razendra2011]

Thank You for the explanation. I could not understand why the resilient modulus of the subbase is taken as 0.2(h^0.45)* Mrsupport. Does the property(here the resilient modulus) of a material depend on its thickness(h) and the property of the supporting layer? Why should we calculate the resilient modulus instead of taking it from the test or laboratory value like the resilient moduli of materials of other layers?(From Nepal)

[@SatishIITR]

Yes, ideally it should be determined in the laboratory. But the method of finding Mr value of granular layer is not simple and requires sophisticated equipment, because there is no cohesion in the material. This Equation is taken from AASHTO.

@@SatishIITR Thank you so much!

[@KRISHNAKUMAR-lg1il]

Sir, If the thickness of DBM in design is given 100 mm and laid in 2-layer in the thickness of 50 m each. Then my question is according to IS -37 is that whether the 1st layer is DBM (G-1) and 2nd layer is DBM ( G-2) OR both the layer will design according to DBM ( G-2 ) based on thickness

[@SatishIITR]

you can do both ways, but design for lower layer and upper layer will be different. The bottom layer must be desiged as bitumen rich mix at lower air voids as suggested in the code.

Sir, at 19:11, if the embankment soil CBR is less than 5% and borrowed soil CBR is more than 5%, in this case when the Mrs is more than 100 and we limit Mrs to 100 and while recalculate the CBR which CBR equation we need to use?

[@SatishIITR]

There is no need to calculate CBR back as it is not a design parameter.

[@sivannarayanamindala196]

Sir, in this lecture you mentioned CTB, GSB combination (6th cross section), we can use SAMI or AIL. If my design traffic is 20 MSA shall I use SAMI. If not on which criteria, I should consider for providing these crack relief layers.

[@SatishIITR]

Yes, you can

[@buildwaysengineers8978]

Very good lecture sir thank you for that.... have some questions 1. No of oRiginal ground CBR values are coming in filed ( interval of chainage). All cbr values are different that case how to chose cbr? 2. CBT OR CBST layer practically where to use ( cold conditions or warm conditions)? 3. Is it possible to more Elaborate how to collected data, analysis and calculate actual traffic growth rate?

[@SatishIITR]

My answer to your queries 1. If the type of soil varies along the length of the pavement, determine CBR (three samples at least) for each type of soil and then determine 90th percentile CBR value (if Expressway, NH, SH and Urban Roads) or 80th percentile for other categories of the roads and design the pavement. 2. There is no restriction of CTB or CTSB for cold or warm condition. You need to test it for durability as per weather conditions 3. This is a different topic all together and will try to discuss in another video.

Sir, if both the equation of Elastic modulus/Mrs are used to calculate the elastic modulus Value then which equation will be used to calculate the effective CBR value after getting the surface delfection ?!

[@SatishIITR]

Remember CBR is not used in the design, it is Mr value that is given as input to IITPAVE. After getting the surface deflection, find out the Mr value and this is the effective Mr of the subgrade soil. If you want to find out the effective CBR then use this Mr value to back calculate CBR. I hope it is clear now.

In my opinion, prime coat will be required only if you are using crack relief layer of aggregates only.
