ABSTRACT

The development of effective road transport system is primary need of any developing

country. Also upgrading of existing road network is essential for developed countries to carry out its

transportation functions smoothly as with increasing traffic volume urban and non-urban roads reach

to their saturation level in passage of time. The design of route alignment and pavement structure

decide cost of project which totally depend on time taken for same. So for this job the best available

Highway Geometric Design Software must be deployed. Keeping this in view we have used

MXROAD Software for the geometric design of the existing state highway (SH 131) in Maharashtra

to improve its geometric features and upgrading it from two lanes to four lanes. The Software uses

3D string modeling technologyand gives the desired values of different components of geometric

design such as Horizontal and Vertical Curves, Super elevation, Shoulder, etc.

Keywords: Geometric Design, MXROAD Software.

INTRODUCTION

During last few years there has been huge development in Indian economy and transportation

plays a vital role in it. For any developing country road network acts as a backbone for its steady

growth. Due to rapid growth in road infrastructure and its need there is need of a model which guides

the designer to create a most effective design with high precision standards, which in turn leads to

saving time, money and material costs. With the use of latest software technology, road design

software named MXROAD has been used to pace up with the fast growing road infrastructure field.

By using this software highway design engineers quickly and easily create design alternatives to

build an ideal road system.

Designing of highway depends on the components like Alignment, Pavement, Cross

Drainage Structures, Road Furniture, Environment and Safety. The change in nature of these

components directly affects the Geometric Design of road and thus its cost.

The use of computer in work station has become inevitable and has been used in various

fields. For last few decades computer applications in highway design has changed drastically and by

which highway designer can draft, design and estimate for any road section. There are number of

software’s which are used for highway designing purpose. The list includes Nova point, Civil 3D,

Procedure of MXROAD

The procedure of MXROAD for the design of highway geometry is given below:

1. Data receiving: The existing ground data is required for designing of highway geometry. This

survey data includes X, Y, Z co-ordinates (i.e. Northing, Easting and Reduced Level). This data can

be collected now days by using total station instrument.

2. Data Import: Existing ground data’s are import on which the road design scheme is to be

implemented. The data may be imported in one of several formats:

• AutoCAD DXF (*.dxf)

• National Transfer Format (*.ntf)

• MX GENIO (*.txt)

• MX Survey Data (*.inp)

• Eagle Point Triangulation

5. Alignment Design: The alignment design option are used to create the alignment for the road

design by choosing Quick alignment option, Horizontal Design, Vertical profile can be done in

limited time duration. The alignment is converted to a master string which is generally used as the

Centre line along which a carriageway and other features can be designed.

Alignments are created in two stages:

1. Horizontal Design

2. Vertical Design

For Horizontal and Vertical Design, there are three design models

• Element method

• Intersection Point (IP) method

• Spline method

6. Road Design: Road design is a series of options which enables in designing a road from an

existing master string. It consists of a number of stages which are:

• Carriageway Design

• Super Elevation Design

• Road Widening

• Shoulder Design

• Kerbs, Verges and footways

• Junction Design

PROJECT COST ESTIMATION

A rough quantity and estimation has been prepared for the project considering all the major

items belonging to road works. The quantification of major work item is done based on detailed plan

and design using the current market rates as given below:

Table No.3 Unit Rates of Major Items Sr.no. Item Unit Rate Rs.

1. Scarification- Bituminous layer Sq.m. 300.00

2. Earthen Sub Grade Cu.m. 300.00

3. Granular sub Base (GSB) Cu.m. 1650.00

4. Wet Mix Macadam (WMM) Cu.m. 1935.00

5. Prime Coat Sq.m. 11.00

6. Tack Coat Sq.m. 12.40

7. Dense Bituminous Macadam (DBM) Sq.m. 450.00

8. Bituminous Concrete (BC) Cu.m. 11500.00

The total cost of 6.225 km four lane divided carriageway is 23.22 cores.

CONCLUSION

• All the improvements are planned within the proposed right of way.

• The proposed alignment is designed to match with the existing alignment at major cross

drainage sections.

• Design speeds are formulated for ruling Design Speed of 80 kmph and minimum design speed

of 30 kmph.

• The proposed alignment encounters minimum horizontal curve radius at two minor junctions,

where the speeds are restricted to minimum.

• Limiting gradient values are adopted for few sections where site restriction prevails.

• The obtained base traffic volume data has been projected to a period of 15 years (2014-2029).

• High design precision and saving in time were achieved by using MXROAD.
