MARINE DRIVE
MARINE DRIVE IN MUMBAI – INDIA
Constructed in 1939 is an OUTSTANDING example of SUCCESSFUL CEMENT CONCRETE ROAD . Even after 76 yrs. of operation its performance is satisfactory .
OUTSTANDING EXAMPLE
ITORI – IBESE ROAD – 24 KMS.
CONSTRUCTED by DANGOTE CONSTRUCTION GROUP
OUTSTANDING EXAMPLE
2.0 Past Choice
• Flexible pavement because of– Lack of funds– Amenability to stage construction– Correction to defective construction – possible– Shortage of Cement– Lack of mechanization in Concrete Production and
Paving
7/12
• Pot holes and damages as a result of water logging, rain etc.• Highly flexible and hence low load bearing capability.• High fuel consumptions for vehicles.• High Maintenance cost.• Threat to Sustainable development
3.0 Bituminous Pavements : Problems
• HEAVY LODING AND MULTIAXLE VEHICLES ON ROAD
• HIGH DESIGN LIFE (30-40 YEARS)
• FREQUENT MAINTENANCE AND OVERLAY REPEATEDLY INCREASE COST AND CAUSE INCONVINIENCE TO
USERS.
• EASY AVAILABILITY OF INDIGINOUSLY PRODUCED CEMENT
• UNCERTAINTY ABOUT BITUMEN AVAILABILITY IN FUTURE AND EVER INCREASING COST. PART
REQUIREMENT IS ALREADY IMPORTED.
• LIFE CYCLE COSTING IS TRUE INDICATION OF COST COMPARISION
• ECONOMIC LOSS DUE TO POOR CONDITION OF ROADS :
$1 Billion - $ 1.5 Billion every year, appx.
3.1 Present conditions call for reappraisal of pavement choice
Present Cement Capacity in Nigeria is around 41 million ton per
annum.
Expected demand of Cement is 20 million in 2015.
Capacity Under Construction – 8.5 million ton per annum.
ADEQUATE QUANTITY OF CEMENT OF INTERNATIONAL
QUALITY IS NOW AVAILABLE WITHIN THE COUNTRY.
4.0 CEMENT SCENARIO - NIGERIA
BITUMEN IS DERIVED FROM PETROLEUM CRUDE
WORLD SUPPLY OF CRUDE IS NOT INEXHAUSTIBLE.
MAY LAST FOR ANOTHER 25 YEARS OR SO, BUT PRICES WILL
CONTINUE TO INCREASE BEYOND EXPECTATION.
IT IS IN THE COUNTRY’S INTEREST TO CONSERVE PETROLEUM
PRODUCTS. AND TO ADOPT MORE ECO-FRIENDLY AND COST
EFFECTIVE TECHNOLOGIES
5.0 OUTLOOK FOR PETROLEUM CRUDE
• AVERAGE YEARLY BITUMEN REQUIREMENT
OVER 2010-30 - 5 Million. TONNES
• RISING FROM AROUND 3 Million. TONNES IN 2010 TO
7 Mil. TONNES IN 2030.
6.0 OUTLOOK FOR BITUMEN
Bitumen is going to be costlier in Future than Cement
Bitumen Price - per ton
Cement Price - Per bag
7.0 Advantages of Concrete Roads
7.1 Advantages of Concrete Roads
• Long Life – 40 yrs. Example : Marine drive Mumbai India and Autobahn Germany
• Practically maintenance free – Mumbai saves about $ 3,000,000 every year after concreting 450 Kms.
• Freedom from damages caused by rains, water logging, flooding etc.
Marine Drive Mumbai
Good reflectivity of LightConsumes 10% less in street lighting.
7.2 Advantages of Concrete Roads
• Good riding quality • Can be designed for heavy loads• Concrete roads saves 14% of the fuel due to its inflexibility• No effect of spillage of Oil.
7.3 Advantages of Concrete Roads
Deflection of rigid and flexible pavement under wheel loads
• Load Distribution
• Concrete Strength(RP)
• Combined Strength of Layers(FP)
Structural Difference Between Concrete And Asphalt Pavement
Gross truck weight ( Tons) % Fuel savings
5 5.8
10 9.8
15 12.3
20 14
25 15.3
• Good Speed , Less fuel consumption and less wear and tear of tyres
7.4 Advantages of Concrete Roads
• Low initial consumption of stone aggregates 30% -40%
• No consumption of stone aggregates in Maintenance
• BITUMEN- A petroleum product expected to be scarce in future as crude
reserves dry up.
• CEMENT- An indigenous product available in plenty. Its production will continue
to increase for the next 100 years or so.
7.5 Advantages of Concrete Roads
7.6 Advantages of Concrete Roads
• For new heavy traffic roads initial construction cost of concrete road is 10% to 15% lower than Bitumen road.
• On life cycle cost basis concrete road is undoubtedly a much cheaper alternative.
• On 20 yrs. Life cycle cost concrete roads are 30 to 35 % cheaper than Bitumen roads.
8.0 ECONOMICS OF PAVEMENTS
Cost comparison for New Concrete Road for Highways (1 km x 2 lane of 3.5 m wide)
Economics of Pavements
1. Concrete Pavements 67.39MNGN
1.1 Cement treated Laterite material to a compacted thickness of 150 mm as base 7.40 MNGN
1.2 Rigid base layer in reinforced concrete grade 30 of 200 mm thickness 59.99 MNGN
2 Asphalt Pavement 84.83 MNGN
2.1 Crushed stone base 10.26 MNGN
2.2 Prime coat with bitumen emulsion on granular surface 1.76 MNGN
2.3 Bituminous macadam 150mm 40.67 MNGN
2.4 Tack coat with bitumen emulsion on Bituminous surface 2.07 MNGN
2.5 Binder course asphaltic concrete 60 mm 17.63 MNGN
2.6 Wearing course Aspaltic concrete 40 mm 12.43 MNGN
9.0 Pre-requisites for Durable Concrete Roads
• Proper design (with proper site & traffic data) as per IRC provisions
• Adequate planning of utilities
• Mechanized Construction– Use of only RMC / batching plants (No site mixing of concrete to be
allowed)– Use of mechanized pavers for uniform strength
• Strict Quality control at site– Proper pre-overlay works– Proper post-concreting works– Tests on concrete & pavement
10.0 SOME RECENT SUCCESSFUL EXAMPLES OF CONCRETE ROADS IN INDIA
• MUMBAI-PUNE EXPRESSWAY (100 KM) .• WHITE-TOPPING IN MUMBAI CITY, BENGALURU, JAIPUR • WHITE-TOPPING IN BRT CORRIDOR-DELHI• INDORE BYPASS• 2000 KM OF 4-LANING NATIONAL HIGHWAYS • CITY ROADS IN NASIK, PUNE, NAGPUR, MANGALORE, ETC.• YAMUNA EXPRESSWAY BETWEEN DELHI AND AGRA
11.0 TO SUM UP
CONCRETE ROADS WILL ALTER PUBLIC PERCEPTION OF ROADS.
• NO POTHOLES, NO PATCHES, NO BUMPY RIDE • NO PERIODIC MAINTENANCE• LONGER LIFE OF ROAD • NO DAMAGES DUE TO RAINS/ WATER LOGGING • LESS ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION FOR STREET LIGHTING• LESS EXPLOITATION OF QUARRIES • ASSURED SUPPLY OF CEMENT AS AGAINST LOOMING UNCERTAINTY OF BITUMEN IN YEARS
TO COME • 14% SAVINGS IN FUEL OF COMMERCIAL VEHICLES• LOWER VEHICLE POLLUTION • COMPARABLE INITIAL CONSTRUCTION COST AND GREAT SAVINGS IN LIFE-CYCLE COST
