  • CONCRETE Pavingtechnology Concrete Intersections a Guide for Design and Construction
    CONCRETE PAVINGTechnology Concrete Intersections A Guide for Design and Construction Introduction Traffic causes damage to pavement of at-grade street and road intersections perhaps more than any other location. Heavy vehicle stopping and turning can stress the pavement surface severely along the approaches to an intersection. The pavement within the junction (physical area) of an intersection also may receive nearly twice the traffic as the pavement on the approaching roadways. At busy intersections, the added load and stress from heavy vehicles often cause asphalt pavements to deteriorate prematurely. Asphalt surfaces tend to rut and shove under the strain of busses and trucks stopping and turning. These deformed surfaces become a safety concern for drivers and a costly maintenance problem for the roadway agency. Concrete pavements better withstand the loading and turning movements of heavy vehicles. As a result, city, county and state roadway agencies have begun rebuilding deteriorated asphalt intersections with con- crete pavement. These agencies are extending road and street system maintenance funds by eliminating the expense of intersections that require frequent maintenance. At-grade intersections along business, industrial and arterial corridor routes are some of the busiest and most vital pavements in an urban road network. Closing these roads and intersections for pavement repair creates costly traffic delays and disruption to local businesses. Concrete pavements provide a long service life for these major corridors and intersections. Concrete pavements also offer other advantages for As a rule, it is important to evaluate the existing pave- intersections: ment condition before choosing limits for the new concrete pavement. On busy routes, it may be desir- 1.

  • Concrete Sidewalk Specifications
    CONCRETE SIDEWALK SPECIFICATIONS GENERAL Concrete sidewalks shall be constructed in accordance with these specifications and the requirements of the State of Wisconsin, Department of Transportation, Standard Specifications for Road and Bridge Construction, Current Edition (hereafter “Standard Specifications”). Concrete sidewalks shall conform to the lines and grades established by the City Engineer. All removal and replacements will be made as ordered by the City Engineer. The Contractor shall construct one-course sidewalks of a minimum thickness of four (4) inches in accordance with the plans and specifications. Sidewalk through a driveway section shall be a minimum thickness of six (6) inches. Concrete driveway approaches shall be a minimum thickness of six (6) inches. SUBGRADE A new sub-base may be required by the Engineer if, in his opinion, the soil in the subgrade is soft or spongy in places and will swell or shrink with changes in its moisture content. If a new sub- base is required, it shall consist of granular material and shall be spread to a depth of at least three (3) inches and thoroughly compacted. While compacting the sub-base the material shall be thoroughly wet and shall be wet when the concrete is deposited but shall not show any pools of water. If the Contractor undercuts the subgrade two (2) inches or more, he shall, at his expense, bring the subgrade to grade by using gravel fill and it shall be thoroughly compacted. Where sidewalk is placed over excavations such as tree roots or sewer laterals, four (4) one-half (1/2) inch reinforcing bars shall be placed to prevent settling or cracking of the sidewalk.

  • 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.

However, adjustments to the alignment of the sensor modules may be changed in the field. The infrared light beams are projected to the respective receiver module. The Bollard system is directionally sensitive and is activated only when a pedestrian enters into the crosswalk zone not when exiting. A pair of Bollards are placed at each end of the crosswalk, usually four bollards per crosswalk. When pedestrians enter into a crosswalk zone they pass between the Bollards and the Smart Crosswalk™ system is automatically activated. Each Bollard has a 24/7 LED courtesy light making the Bollard visible at night or during inclement weather. In order to capture the most pedestrians crossing the street, it is recommended that the bollards be placed a few feet wider than the crosswalk.

    1.1 What is Concrete Masonry? Introduction Concrete masonry construction (or as it is more and Specifiers are using Architectural Masonry in commonly called, concrete blockwork) is based on more commercial and residential applications. thousands of years experience in building structures of stone, mud and clay bricks. Blockwork masonry Using the various textures of Fair Face, Honed and units are hollow and are filled with concrete and Splitface is adding a lot more variety to the features allow for the integration of reinforcing steel, a feature of the wall. essential for earthquake resistant design. Concrete blockwork provides a structural and architectural advantage in one material and is recognised worldwide as a major contributor to the construction and building industry. Types of Concrete Blockwork The workhorse of concrete masonry has traditionally been stretcher bond blockwork forming structural, fire and acoustic functions from residential to large commercial buildings as well as the special use in retaining walls. With the introduction of coloured masonry Architects Figure 1: Commercial Stretcher Bond Blockwork Figure 2: Coloured Honed Blockwork Figure 3: Coloured Honed Blockwork Figure 4: Coloured Fairface, Honed and Splitface Blockwork Figure 5: Splitface Blockwork New Zealand Concrete Masonry Association Inc. Figure 6: Honed Half High Blockwork Figure 7: Honed Natural Blockwork There are also masonry blocks that include polystyrene inserts which provide all the structural benefits of a normal masonry block with the added advantage of built-in insulation. Building with these blocks removes the need for additional insulation - providing the added design flexibility of a solid plastered finish both inside and out. The word “Concrete Masonry” also encompasses a wide variety of products such as, brick veneers, retaining walls, paving and kerbs.
