QUALITY ASSURANCE AND MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR R&B DEPATRMENT:

GOVT. OF TELANGANA STATE.
Quality assurance and quality control is achieved in three stages
1) Material selection stage, 2)Processing stage, 3)Finished stage

conjunction with the positive tolerance for base Course if the thickness of the former is
thereby reduced by more than the following limits.

3mm for bituminous wearing course of thickness less than 40 mm
5mm for concrete pavement slab.
SURFACE REGULARITY OF SUB GRADE AND PAVEMENT COURSES (CLAUSE 902.4)
The longitudinal profile shall be checked with a three meter long straight edge at the middle of each
traffic lane along a line parallel to the centre line of the road. The cross profile shall be checked with a set of
three camber boards at intervals of 10 meter.
Permitted tolerance of surface regularity are as fallows.

The maximum allowable difference between the road surface and underside of 3m straight
edge when Placed parallel or right angles to the centre line of the road at points decided by Engineer
shall be:
 For paved bituminous surface: 3 mm
 For bituminous base courses: 6 mm
 Granular base/sub bases: 8 mm
 Sub base under concrete pavement:10mm
 For subgrade 15mm.
Rectification, in case surface irregularity exceeds (Clause 902.4)

In cases where requirements of surface irregularity are not satisfied and the tolerance limits
given above are exceeded in respect of sub grade and various pavement courses, work of
rectification shall be carried out in the following manner:
A) SUBGRADE: Where the surface is high, it shall be trimmed and suitably compacting shall correct
the deficiency. Where the surface is low, adding fresh material and suitably compacting shall correct
the deficiency.
B) GRANULAR SUB-BASE: Same as at (A) above but the degree of compacting and the type of
material shall confirm to Clause 401.
C) WMM: Where the surface is high or low, the top 75 mm shall be scarified reshaped with
added material wherever necessary and re compacted as per requirement.
D) BITUMINOUS Construction:
I) Other than wearing course: where the surface is low, the deficiency shall be corrected by
adding fresh material and re-compacting to specifications. Where the surface is high, the extra
thickness in the effected layer shall be removed and replaced with fresh material and compacted to
specifications.
ii) Wearing Course: Where the surface is high or low, the full depth of the layer shall be
removed and replaced with fresh material and compacted to specifications.
In all cases of bituminous construction, where the removal and replacement of a bituminous
layer is involved, the area treated shall not be less than 3.5 m in width and not less than 5 meters in
length.
C & G Stage: (i) In this stage it requires to ensure that the C&G is done up to the widths as
specified or up to toe line/edge of excavation. (ii) Pre-levels i.e. levels prior to
commencement of C&G and after C & G are taken & verified.
Embankment construction/formation stage: The material used for embankment shall

confirm to the specifications of cl. 305; soil with Liquid limit (LL)> 50 & PI > 25 shall not be used for
embankment. Soils with Free swelling index (FSI) > 50 shall not be used.
Lumps/coarse material of size > 75mm shall not be allowed in embankment and > 50mm
shall not be allowed in sub grade.
Soil shall be such that the Max. Dry Densities are

Embankment ht. > 3m MDD ≥ 16 KN/cum
Sub grade/earth shoulders/verges/ back fill MDD ≥ 17.5 KN/cum
Embankment / sub grade shall be compacted in layers of 250mm compacted thickness, if vibratory
rollers / vibratory earth compactors are used. It shall be 200mm if static rollers are used.

Control of Compaction: Control of compaction of embankment shall be exercised by

taking at least one set of ten measurements of density for each 3000 sq.m of compacted area of
each layer. Test location shall be chosen only through random sampling techniques. If non
destructive tests are conducted the number of tests shall be doubled. If considerable variations are
observed between the individual density results, the minimum number of tests in one set shall be
increased. The acceptance criteria shall be subject to condition that the mean density is not less than
the specified density plus (1.65 – 1.65/√n)*σ.
For earth work in shoulders and sub grade at least one set of ten density measurements
shall be taken for each 2000 sq. m of compacted area.

BITUMEN – CLASSIFICATION
Based on GRADATION values, STRAIGHT RUN BITUMEN is EQUIVALENCE OF THICKNESSES of BITUMEN MIXES
classified in 3 ways.
1) PENETRATION GRADING (Adopted 1950-2006) ::

Penetration of needle loaded with 100 gm for 5 seconds at
temperature of 250 C.
S90 (80/100), S65 (60/70), S55 (50/60) and S35 (30/40) are
4 types penetration grades for Highways from softer to
stiffer grade.
Penetration graded bitumens can be more prone to rutting
than viscosity graded bitumens.
2) VISCISITY GRADING (Adopted from 2006)::

Viscosity of bitumen is measured at 600C temp. which is a
service temperature for Pavement.

In case for Number of spans 2,4 and 6 the Middle pier will be located right in the center of stream and
always obstructs the stream flow. Also hard foundation may not be available at shallow depths.
2) IN case of Widening the existing culverts GROUPING can done as shown in parenthesis with CLEAR SPAN.
2Vx1.00m (1Vx2.60m), 3Vx1.00m (1Vx4.20m), 4Vx1.00m(2Vx2.60m) and 6Vx1.00m (2Vx4.20m)
2Vx2.00m (1Vx4.60m), 4Vx2.00m (2Vx4.60m), 6Vx2.00m(3Vx4.60m) .

(i)For Widening the existing culverts, Span can be ascertained by GROUPING as per S.No.(2) above
(ii)For New culvers, Span can ascertained as per Site condition or as per Design.
Design Span Length be adjusted as per S.No.(6) above
2) Deck Slab Depth (D1 & D2 or D):
For the Designed Span, Deck Slab depth is selected from Table : STRUCTURAL DETAILS OF
SLAB CULVERTS
3) Pier/Abutment cap (Bed block) Depth:
For Spans less than 3.00m, Camber is provided in Bed block as shown in the drawing
For Spans 3.00m and above 300 mm uniform thick is used.
4) Wearing coat Thickness :
75 mm (0.750m) in case of CC Wearing Course.
56 mm (0.056m) in case Bituminous Wearing Course.
5 H Value :
Obtain the Height of Road Top from the LOWEST BED LEVEL from the site, say it is " h ".
H = h - (Deck Slab Depth D1 or D + Wearing Coat Thickness) + 0.80 m.
H values is fixed to nearest higher value of 1.0. 1.50,2.0,2.50,3.0, 3.50 or 4.00m
