Below is very brief road construction work method statement that outlines the complete process from laying the sub base to the laying of asphalt to achieve final product or outcome. The scope for pavement for the road construction consists of sub-base of granular material, road base of crusher run, asphaltic concrete binder course and asphaltic concrete wearing course.
Stone masonry:- The construction of stones bonded together with mortar is termed as stone masonry. Where the stones are available in an abundance in nature, on cutting and dressing to the proper shape, they provide an economical material for the construction of various building components such as walls, columns, tootings, arches, beams, etc..
One of the earliest applications was in the construction of highways where simple geotextile separators were placed between the sub-base and the subgrade to maintain the integrity of the stone layer. Geosynthetics in Highways and Related Applications TERRAM has been the most-frequently-specified geotextile in the UK for over 40 years.
Base course. The base course or basecourse in pavements is a layer of material in an asphalt roadway, race track, riding arena, or sporting field. It is located under the surface layer consisting of the wearing course and sometimes an extra binder course . If there is a sub-base course, the base course is constructed directly above this layer.

Earth materials are extensively utilised for highway construction in Nigeria. It has been recognised that high quality lateritic soils which are abundant in Nigeria can be used as fill, sub-base, and base course materials in highway construction. In this article, we are going to show the recommended standards for highway materials based on
Materials in Use in U.S. Interstate Highways Printed on recycled paper Materials Usage Natural aggregates (construction sand and gravel and crushed stone) make up the largest component of nonfuel mineral materials consumed in the United States (fig. 1). Most of these materials are used in construction activities, such as in buildings and roads

Desirable Properties of Road Aggregates. 1. Strength. The aggregates to be used in road construction, particularly the aggregates used in the wearing course of the pavement should be sufficiently strong/ resistant to crushing to withstand the high stresses induced due to heavy traffic wheel loads. 2.
A good road base should cover the surface soil completely and be able support heavy vehicles evenly. And depending on the weight and amount of traffic and weather, the base can be as deep as thirty inches. Our rock base is made up of crushed concrete and stone screenings. No matter if you need rock base for a driveway or highway, we have the amount and quality you are looking for.

Step – 2 (Construction of Sub-base) On a well compacted sub-grade, spread 10 to 20 cm size boulders or broken stones, or over burnt bricks in layers of 15 cm thickness and total width of the sub-base to be kept 60 cm wider than pavement width, projecting 30 cm on each side. The sub-base should be compacted by a roller to provide an even surface.

Construction of granular sub-base with crushed stone aggregated only, by mixing material in a mechanical mix plant at OMC, carriage of mixed Material to work site, spreading in uniform layers with motor grader on prepared surface and compacting with vibratory power roller to achieve
Road Structure Cross Section is composed of the following components: Surface/Wearing Course. Base Course. Sub Base. Sub Grade. 1. Surface/Wearing Course in pavement cross section: The top layers of pavement which is in direct contact with the wheel of the vehicle. Usually constructed of material in which bitumen is used as binder materials.
Mostly, it is used as a construction aggregate in asphalt and concrete for road and highway work with or without a binder. Major uses of the cumulative crushed stone without a binder include railroad ballast #3 and road base. Cement and asphalt used in highway construction and general repair in residential and non-residential road development are composites used with a binder.

For more substantial developments, Highways England produces standards and documentation relating to the design, construction and maintenance of highways. For typical paths, tracks, drives and car parks, the sub-base layer can be built using a combination of materials such as a higher quality stone above and low grade crushed concrete beneath.
Thus, a cement concrete pavement is the most superior highway construction primarily from the point of view of strength and durability. The ingredients of the concrete mix, viz., the coarse aggregate (broken stone) and fine aggregate (sand) have to be selected carefully to satisfy the desirable properties for concrete-making. Potable water is generally considered satisfactory making cement

Road construction techniques gradually improved by the study of road traffic, stone thickness, road alignment, and slope gradients. Initial road construction materials were stones that were laid in a regular, compact design, and covered with smaller stones to produce a solid layer.
