Cement concrete pavements became the obvious choice in such locations. Short panelled concrete pavements develop much lower wheel load stresses than the conventional ones and require lower thickness. The paper describes construction of short panelled concrete pavements over stone set pavements in a built up area in Burdwan district, West Bengal. Stress analysis by finite element shows that such a pavement may have a long life due to much lower stresses. The cost of the pavement is a little higher than the bituminous pavements but far lower than the conventional concrete pavements, ...Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
