Effect of vehicle composition on signalized intersection capacity
Abstract: For the design of signalized intersections, capacity is the most critical parameter used. Proper capacity assessment plays an important role in deciding the degree of operation. In order to estimate capacity, the saturation flow rate must be assessed by considering the parameters affected. The main objective of the present study is to identify the impact of the composition of the vehicle and the effect of the time taken to cross …

Design of Flexible Pavement by Stabilizing the Red Soil Using Mistreatment Dismantled Construction Material
Abstract: The objective of this project is to check the feasibleness of the applying of Construction Demolition Waste (CDW) for rising the performance of sub-grade layer within the versatile pavement. future performance of pavement structure depends on the steadiness of underlying soils. Thus there's a desire to remodel ineffective earth materials into effective sub-grade material by helpful the weak soil with appropriate recycled combination as stabilizer. This might be an efficient …

Project Abandonment and Delay in Niger Delta’s Highway Projects
Abstract: The pervasiveness of project delays and abandonment in the developing world is evident in the literature. The study outlines the prevalence of extreme project delays and abandonment in the Niger Delta region, an archetypical low-lying wetland in Nigeria, given the peculiar wet land geology of the Niger Delta. A survey of the empirical literature evidence suggests more profound technical shortcomings and procurement issues, beyond the generality of factors endemic in …

Redesign of Bridge Using Bailey Construction Method
Abstract: This paper focuses on Bailey construction method which is Fast, easy to install, safe and most importantly economic. To demonstrate this, we have considered a site (Patri pool, Kalyan) which requires fast bridging. We have designed and analyzed the bridge using Midas civil software. Along with its design and analysis we also have presented cost estimation of the bridge and compared it with traditional methods of bridging and proved Bailey …

Structural Design of Prestressed Concrete Box Girder
Abstract: Bridge Structure is used to carry over the roadway within urban and suburban areas. A bridge structure is basically a facility that connects many busy places through a common route to reducing the traffic volume. Planning and Construction of such structure are very much important in modern times as we notice that majority of the Metropolitan Cities in India are on the verge of getting saturated due to Urbanization. The …
