Abstract

Development of road infrastructure in India is presently being given high importance by the government of India to meet the necessity of increasing travel demand; it includes construction of new road, widening, and overlay of various roads in India. Pavement evaluation was carried out to determine the condition of pavement regarding its surface and structural adequacy. In this research paper, the main attempt made is to evaluate the condition of the selected section of pavement from Balasinor (CH: 1/500 km) to Dev Junction (CH: 12/500 km) on state highway 2. The structural evaluation of pavement is carried out using Benkelman beam to determine the capacity of the pavement with stand traffic loading from the analysis of data the overlay thickness, and the different alternative is suggested and cost analysis of overlay according to the required thickness was suggested on the selected stretch.
