  • Design Guidelines for the Use of Curbs and Curb/Guardrail
    DESIGN GUIDELINES FOR THE USE OF CURBS AND CURB/GUARDRAIL COMBINATIONS ALONG HIGH-SPEED ROADWAYS by Chuck Aldon Plaxico A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Civil Engineering by September 2002 APPROVED: Dr. Malcolm Ray, Major Advisor Civil and Environmental Engineering Dr. Leonard D. Albano, Committee Member Civil and Environmental Engineering Dr. Tahar El-Korchi, Committee Member Civil and Environmental Engineering Dr. John F. Carney, Committee Member Provost and Vice President, Academic Affairs Dr. Joseph R. Rencis, Committee Member Mechanical Engineering ABSTRACT The potential hazard of using curbs on high-speed roadways has been a concern for highway designers for almost half a century. Curbs extend 75-200 mm above the road surface for appreciable distances and are located very near the edge of the traveled way, thus, they constitute a continuous hazard for motorist. Curbs are sometimes used in combination with guardrails or other roadside safety barriers. Full-scale crash testing has demonstrated that inadequate design and placement of these systems can result in vehicles vaulting, underriding or rupturing a strong-post guardrail system though the mechanisms for these failures are not well understood. For these reasons, the use of curbs has generally been discouraged on high-speed roadways. Curbs are often essential, however, because of restricted right-of-way, drainage considerations, access control, delineation and other curb functions. Thus, there is a need for nationally recognized guidelines for the design and use of curbs. The primary purpose of this study was to develop design guidelines for the use of curbs and curb-barrier combinations on roadways with operating speeds greater than 60 km/hr.

  • Sidewalk Construction Standards
    OSHTEMO TOWNSHIP SIDEWALK/SHARED-USE PATH CONSTRUCTION STANDARDS Approved August 28, 2018 CONCRETE SIDEWALK CONSTRUCTION The construction of Sidewalks and Shared-Use Paths within Oshtemo is managed through the Township’s issuance of a Sidewalk/Non-Motorized Path Permit. The permitting process includes both a pre-pour inspection of the base and concrete forms, and a final project inspection for acceptance of the work. Concrete sidewalk shall conform to MDOT 2012 (or current edition) Standard Specifications for Construction Section 803, "Concrete Sidewalks, Sidewalk Ramps and Steps" and shall be a minimum of five (5) feet wide unless a different width is required by other Township ordinances or regulations. Driveway Sidewalk Crossings Where public sidewalks (AKA pedestrian route) cross residential driveways, the sidewalk shall be constructed of concrete through the driveway. Where a curb-line concrete gutter pan begins the driveway, the driveway apron between the curb and sidewalk shall also be constructed of concrete. Hot-Mix Asphalt (HMA) commercial driveways that lack a concrete roadway gutter, and which have greater than two lanes or heavy traffic may seek administrative approval to establish a pedestrian route over the driveway in lieu of placing a concrete walkway through the HMA material. When new sidewalks are extended through existing driveways, it shall be administratively determined by the Township to what extent the existing driveway pavements will need to be reconstructed in lieu of providing a pedestrian route over the pavement. Grade The sidewalk shall be constructed to match the existing grade, or as noted on the construction drawings. The sidewalk will have a transverse slope either toward or away from the road to maintain existing drainage patterns.

Box 5080 Austin, TX 78763-5080 15. Supplementary Notes Project performed in cooperation with the Texas Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration. 16. Abstract Most research studies in the portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement area focused on addressing distresses related to pavement structure itself. As a result, the design and construction of other structural elements of the concrete curb and curb and gutter (CCCG) system have been overlooked and not much research has been done in this area. Visual inspection of damaged CCCG systems was conducted in the field. All damaged CCCG systems were the TxDOT Type II system and almost all damaged CCCG systems were found at U-turn curbs due to excessive off tracking of traffic. Although geometric changes of the curb design are the fundamental solutions for the off tracking failure, such changes are not feasible in most cases due to economic and space limitations.
