The chapter begins by defining, in Section 3.1.1, the elements that make up typical sections and follows, in 3.1.2, with a description of the two highway classification systems used in this chapter. Section 3.2 presents discussions of the individual elements as they relate to new construction.
TYPICAL SECTIONS PURPOSE 6-1 A typical section is a cross-sectional representation of a proposed roadway showing grading and paving details. Typical sections shall include all elements necessary to construct the roadbed and/or pavement structure.
SUPERELEVATION – Show the most common or typical cross slope that applies to each section. Variances in cross slope for transition sections and superelevation on curves do not need to be shown in the typical section.
Asphalt pavement used at and industrial facility SECTION 1 NEW PAVEMENT DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION 1-2 Asphalt pavement used at an industrial facility. DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS When designing asphalt pavements, there are three main elements that must be considered: - Traffic, Subgrade, and Drainage. Each of these
Typical sections shall meet the design criteria of the Highway Design Manual and other applicable Memorandums, Instructional Bulletins and Memos. An example of a blank typical section sheet to be used on all projects is shown in Figure 2-A. The Typical Section Sheet can be found in the border sheet library by the following description:
Jan 1, 2019 · Typical Section sheets provide detailed cross section depictions of the principal roadway elements that are standard between certain station or milepost limits. These sections are the basis for construction details and information shown on the plan sheets.
Jul 2, 2002 · Each new construction or reconstruction project should be evaluated to determine the most appropriate type of pavement. The current pavement selection method, Pavement Type Selection Analysis, uses several factors for comparing suitable options, and is outlined in Chapter 3 of this manual.
Pavement and Geotechnical Design Section prepare the pavement structural design. Additional information concerning asphalt concrete types is provided in the Asphalt Pavement Design Policy.
cross section. Sections having no curbs and a wide depressed median are particularly well suited for this design. With a crowned section, cross slopes should not exceed 2% because the rollover effect, when changing lanes, is then 4%. “Rollover” is the algebraic difference between the two slopes. Roadways that slope in only one direction are
INDOT pavement analysis and design philosophy are based on producing the most effective pavement section that provides acceptable service life at the least cost of ownership, represented by cost/lane mile/year of life.
