Concrete pavement

  • Concrete pavement is, in general, consists of three layers, subgrade, base layer and the concrete slab.
  • Generally bound base layers are used for concrete pavement construction. As per Indian specification, some example of such base layers are Dry Lean Concrete (DLC), Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC) (IRC:15-2002)
  • The concrete slab is generally of M40 to M50 grade of concrete as per Indian specifications, and is called as paving quality concrete (PQC) (IRC:15-2002).
