Questions and Answers

Which characteristic helps in preventing skidding of vehicles on a pavement?

  • Rough surface
  • Adequate thickness (correct)
  • Low coefficient of friction
  • Structural weakness

What is one of the requirements of an ideal pavement?

  • Adequate thickness (correct)
  • Thin surface
  • Low coefficient of friction
  • High maintenance cost

Why should an ideal pavement have an impervious surface?

  • To allow water penetration
  • To protect the sub-grade soil (correct)
  • To increase visibility
  • To reduce noise

Match the following pavement requirements with their descriptions:

<p>Sufficient thickness = Distribute wheel load stresses to safe value on sub-grade soil Structurally strong = Withstand all types of stresses imposed upon it Adequate coefficient of friction = Prevent skidding of vehicles Impervious surface = Protect sub-grade soil and produce least noise from moving vehicles</p> Signup and view all the answers
