New Roads
3.5.1 Excavation in cutting in soil by manual Road sectioning
means Length x ½ width x 0.075 m
3.3 Construction of embankment with Filling with available earth
material obtained from roadway
cutting
3.4 Construction of embankment with Filling with contractors own earth (if
material obtained from borrow pits depth of filling is more than 30 cm, the
remaining depth is taken in this item)
Eg. If depth of filling is 1.0m, 30 cm is
taken in 3.14 and 70 cm is taken in 3.4

After the construction of WMM, prime
coat is applied and kept for 24 hrs
without any traffic
After 24 hrs, tack coat is applied
Chipping carpet
Seal coat
On the day of retarring, tack coat is
applied before laying chipping carpet
