Book Description
Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2017 in the subject Engineering - Civil Engineering, Addis Ababa University, course: Road and Transport Planning, language: English, abstract: As many of the developing countries Ethiopian's road network is mostly gravel. It comprises 82.7% of the road network. Road users and residences around these roads highly exposed to the dust generated due to traffic. In the past years so many techniques of dust reduction has been applied, starting from application of water to using chemical adhesives. In this work an alternative option for dust reduction is presented. Sub base materials from Gelan-Insilale-Legedadi DS6 road section and tear off asphalt pavement from Kality-Akaki road were bagged, tagged & transferred to laboratory. In laboratory in order to determine the engineering property ASTM & AASHTO standards were used. Precipitation Data from Ethiopian National Meteorology Agency, traffic count, vehicle classification of federal highway administration and laboratory test results of silt content & particle size multiplier K-value were used for adopting EPA3 dust quantification model & fugitive dust handbook equation. MINI-TAB17& Excel analyses were used to analyze the data. The result shows blending the 70% sub base with 30% RAP the dust emission was reduced by 17%. The method was also found to be both ecological & economical.

Pages : 112
Book Description
The purpose of this manual is to provide clear and helpful information for maintaining gravel roads. Very little technical help is available to small agencies that are responsible for managing these roads. Gravel road maintenance has traditionally been "more of an art than a science" and very few formal standards exist. This manual contains guidelines to help answer the questions that arise concerning gravel road maintenance such as: What is enough surface crown? What is too much? What causes corrugation? The information is as nontechnical as possible without sacrificing clear guidelines and instructions on how to do the job right.
