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
