The "Pavement Construction Practices" course provides a thorough understanding of highway construction according to IRC and MoRTH standards. It focuses on selecting essential plants and machinery for constructing rigid and flexible pavement layers, including asphalt mix plants, concrete batching plants, and earthmoving equipment. Learners will explore project planning, scheduling, and monitoring, as well as construction sequences and guidelines to meet quality control requirements in compliance with IRC and MoRTH standards. The course offers practical insights into constructing various pavement layers, such as embankments, subgrades, granular sub-base layers, wet mix macadam, bituminous layers (DBM & BC), dry lean concrete (DLC), and pavement quality concrete (PQC). By the end, learners will gain comprehensive knowledge and practical skills, making them proficient in planning, executing, and ensuring quality in highway pavement construction in alignment with Indian standards. Target learners include civil engineering graduate and post-graduate students, as well as professionals in transportation and infrastructure development, with prerequisites in Concrete Technology, Geotechnical Engineering, Building Materials & Construction, and Construction Equipment & Methods.
In this module, "Highway Plants and Machinery and Construction Planning," learners will explore various plants and machinery required for highway construction, including asphalt mix plants, horizontal and compact concrete batching plants, and wet mix macadam plants. The module provides a detailed examination of earthmoving, excavation, compaction, and paving equipment. It also covers factors affecting the output of plants and equipment and initiatives to improve quality. Additionally, the module offers a comprehensive understanding of highway project planning, scheduling, monitoring, and the corresponding software used.
