b). What are the various factors to be considered in
Remembering 5
pavement design? Discuss the significance of each.

a). Derive Westergaard's stress equation in rigid

Applying 5
pavements.
b). Design the length and spacing of tie bars given
that the pavement thickness is 20cm and width of the
2 road is 7m with one longitudinal joint. The unit CO2
weight of concrete is 2400 kg=m3, the coefficient of Creating 5
friction is 1.5, allowable working tensile stress in
steel is 1750 kg=cm2, and bond stress of deformed
bars is 24.6 kg=cm2.
