4 Questions
Which characteristic helps in preventing skidding of vehicles on a pavement?
Adequate thickness
What is one of the requirements of an ideal pavement?
Adequate thickness
Why should an ideal pavement have an impervious surface?
To protect the sub-grade soil
Match the following pavement requirements with their descriptions:
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
Test your knowledge of the ideal requirements for a pavement, including thickness, strength, surface smoothness, coefficient of friction, and noise reduction. See if you understand what makes a pavement safe and comfortable for road users.
