Standard Specification for Road Works of JKR (JKR/SPJ/1988) defines sub-grade as that part of the embankment or existing ground in cutting which is immediately below the sub-base or lower sub-base of the road pavements and shoulders. It specifies that materials for embankment fill or for the top 300 mm of sub-grade shall be of suitable ...
For a material to be used as either a base course or sub-base course depends on its strength in transmitting the axle-load to the sub-soil and or sub-grade (the mechanical interlock).
The soil samples A, B and C can be used as sub grade materials in road construction when there is optimum stabilization with sugar cane straw ash. View Show abstract
Generally, a flexible sub-base of unbound material needs to be at least 100mm deep, as does a bound sub-base of CBM/HBM. For bitumen-bound material, then 50mm is a typical minimum thickness. There's a 'rule of thumb' that we use …
Granular Sub Base (GSB) is a natural or designed construction material used as a sub-base layer for road construction. Granular Sub Base is a layer in the road foundation just above the …
The top foundational layer is the base course, usually made of crushed stone or a stabilized aggregate mix. Base materials have smaller particles under 1 inch that bond together tightly. This creates a smooth platform for the asphalt paving. Multi-Layer Base Benefits. The graded progression from subgrade through base provides: Asphalt Road Base ...
A granular sub base is in their adopted for highway construction which can be constructed above the subgrade and below the crust material. The largest size of crane used for GSB is approx 65 mm.in recent type of construction engineers would like to use the crushed stone because it having a particular call centre job and specific range is this ...

Construction Process of Sub base a. Preparation of Subgrade surface. Before dumping and placing subbase material surface of subgrade should be prepared and any unsuitable material should removed. b. Placement of subbase material. Spread the sub-base material evenly over the prepared sub-grade using equipment like bulldozers, graders or excavators.
In road construction, Type A fill material forms the sub-base and base layers of roadways, providing the necessary support and stability for the surface layer. Retaining Walls and Embankments The stability and minimal settlement characteristics of Type A fill make it ideal for supporting retaining walls and embankments, helping to prevent ...

aggregate or gravel or recycled materials (see Section 6C-1 - Pavement Systems for more information). Although the terms "base" and "subbase" are sometimes used interchangeably to refer to the subsurface layers of a pavement, base course is typically used in …
The utilization of Geotextiles (woven and nonwoven) improves the engineering functioning of road and railway bases fulfilling the following functions: Separation between fine soil and coarse …
This class is the unbound sub-base material typically specified when a very free-draining sub-base is required, and demand has grown with the increased use of permeable pavements, although some Concrete Block Permeable Paving (CBPP – also known as PICP in North America) use a build-up of selected Close Graded Aggregates as an alternative to DTp3.

Granular fill is available in a variety of sizes, which are used as general fill or as capping materials in large-scale ground works and civil engineering projects. Soils and Stone can supply two different graded granular fills: 6F4 and 6F5. ... IBA Aggregate can be used as a road sub-base material and for specialist bulk fill.
Three marginally suitable but abundant sub-base materials, typical of the soils within the Kumasi metropolis of Ghana, have been blended with varying proportions of readily …
The sub-base layer is often the main load-bearing layer of a pavement. It is designed to evenly spread the load of the paving, and any traffic thereon, to the sub-grade below. A well-constructed sub-base will aid drainage and prevent settlement and channelisation - the phenomenon common on cheap installations of block paving, where two 'ruts' develop in the paving.
A subbase is not often used. D. Base Course - One or more layers of specified material of designed thickness, placed on a subbase course or a subgrade to support a surface course. E. Surface Course - The upper portion of the pavement structure consisting of a mixture of mineral aggregates and bituminous material or Portland cement concrete.
The base course material, according to ACI 302, "Concrete Floor and Slab Construction," should be "compactible, easy to trim, granular fill that will remain stable and support construction traffic." ACI 302 recommends material with 10 to 30% fines (passing the No. 100 sieve) with no clay, silt, or organic materials.
The subbase is the layer of material placed on the compacted subgrade and beneath the base course. It provides additional support and helps in drainage. Common materials used for …
Mineral aggregates obtained from rocks form the major component of the sub-bases and bases of highway pavements of almost all types. A detailed study of their properties is therefore essential.
The results showed that the rating of the samples as sub-base material is fair to poor ... soil samples which have being used as borrow materials for road construction; give a description of the ... well to fill all the voids (Powrie, 1997).
