This section will deal with the proper design and construction of subbases. The subbase is the layer of aggregate material that lies immediately below the pavement and usually consists of crushed aggregate or gravel or recycled materials (see Section 6C-1 - Pavement Systems for more information).

A base serves two main purposes: It provides uniform support for the slab It serves as a capillary cutoff that prevents moisture from wicking up through the subgrade and collecting beneath the slab, A granular base also may be easier to fine-grade before placing the concrete. If the subgrade is difficult to grade, slab thickness may vary.

1.1 The Function Of Sub Base Course Layers A base course is defined as the layer of material that lies immediately below the wearing course of a pavement, and the sub base is a layer of material between the base and sub grade. Sometimes the material under a rigid pavement is called as sub base. The sub base layer in the flexible pavement is used

The granular base course serves several functions: 1. Load Distribution: It distributes the loads from traffic and prevents excessive stress on the subgrade, thereby improving the overall stability of the pavement. The primary function of the granular base course is to evenly distribute the loads from traffic and other applied forces, such as ...

Base/Subbase Material Characteristics. Unstabilized bases, also frequently referred to as granular bases, are the most commonly used base types for concrete pavements. Adequately designed and properly constructed, unstabilized bases exhibit excellent field performance at a lower cost than stabilized bases.

Aggregate Base Course Under Asphalt. Well-graded aggregate laid above the subgrade and below asphalt distributes loads while providing stability. Aggregate Base Tons = (Surface Area ft2 x Agg. Base Depth in) x 1.4 tons/yd3 / 27 ft3/yd3.

This macadam work method statement covers laying and compacting clean, crushed, graded aggregate and granular materials premixed with water into a dense mass on a prepared Granular Sub base Course to specified lines, grades and cross sections as shown in drawings, subject to a minimum thickness of 75 mm and max. of 200 mm. …

This course ensures efficient distribution of the traffic load and enables adequate sub-surface drainage. The base course is usually constructed from good-quality gravel or crusher run aggregates. ... can also be seen from Fig. 10.26 that 1000–5000 MPa is a proper range of the base modulus because the pure flexible base course (granular ...

The subbase, according to ACI 302.1, "Guide to Concrete Floor and Slab Construction," is a layer on top of the subgrade of "compactible, easy to trim, granular fill that will remain stable and support construction traffic.". In some cases, a base layer is placed on top of the subbase. All of these layers together comprise the soil ...

This document provides specifications for furnishing, spreading, and compacting granular subbase for road construction. It outlines requirements for the material quality, placement, compaction, and moisture content. The granular subbase must meet grading and quality standards, be spread and compacted in layers, and achieve a minimum 98% relative …

Over-excavation. The general principle is to replace poor load-bearing in situ subgrade with better load-bearing fill. Typically, 0.3 – 0.6 m (1 – 2 ft.) of poor soil may be excavated and replaced with better load-bearing fill such as gravel borrow. Add a base course and perhaps a subbase course over the subgrade.
