    STAR PRINTING
    This document provides details on the design of a rigid pavement for a final year civil engineering project. It discusses surveying the site, testing the soil properties, and designing the different components of the rigid pavement system according to Indian Roads Congress guidelines. These include preparing the soil subgrade and base course, designing the concrete slab thickness and joint spacing, and considering drainage and lighting design. Materials required are estimated along with associated costs. The objective is to provide a thorough analysis that takes into account the site conditions and results in a cost-effective rigid pavement design.

    DESIGN OF RIGID PAVEMENT

    FINAL YEAR CIVIL ENGG


    CERTIFICATE

    )
    DECLARATION
    ABSTRACT

    Every rigid pavement is unique and requires thorough analysis. The designer must take
    intoaccount a large number of parameters. The design must be compatible with the
    weatherconditions, construction equipment, construction methods, internalpermanent structures,
    and ground conditions. Comparable cost studies should be analyzed todetermine if the rigid
    pavement designing method is favoured over other techniques, such as precast or plain cement
    concrete construction. The designing of rigid pavement must be done as per Indian Roads
    Congress (I.R.C) guidelines.
