Early Portland Cement Concrete Pavments An older Portland Cement Concrete road. This is the Sunset Highway in Washington, paved in 1919. At the turn of the century (1900), cements were categorized as natural or artificial. Natural cements were made directly from specific rock.
A properly designed and constructed cement concrete road is a pathway designed to carry heavy traffic. It has a base level of one to Six feet (depending on the soil conditions) of sand, topped with one to three feet of crushed stone topped with one half to two feet of gravel, topped with interwoven rebar and filled to level surface with properly mixed cement concrete ( cement mixed with gravel for stability) and
Compaction of Cement Concrete Road : After the concrete is placed in its position, it should brought in its proper position by heavy screed or tamper fitted with suitable handles. The wooden tamper is at least 75 mm wide and its underside is shaped to the finished crosssection of the slab.

Cement Concrete Roads Advantages And Disadvantages
A concrete pavement is a structure comprising of a layer of Portland cement concrete (base) which is usually supported by a subbase layer on the subgrade. The terminology used in Australia is illustrated in Figure1. Concrete pavements may be either unreinforced (plain) or reinforced depending on how the designer prefers to
Feb 12, 2019#0183;#32;Cement is a dry powdered chemical that, when mixed with water, slowly reacts to form a new hard, solid compound. On the other hand, concrete is a mixture of cement blended with water and various sizes of aggregates. The cement and water form

Portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement, or rigid pavement as it is sometimes called, refers to the rigid concrete layer of the pavement structure that is in direct contact with the traffic. Typical concrete is composed of coarse aggregate (crushed stone and gravel), fine aggregate such as
SoilCement. Soilcement is a highly compacted mixture of soil/aggregate, cement, and water. It is widely used as a lowcost pavement base for roads, residential streets, parking areas, airports, shoulders, and materialshandling and storage areas. Its advantages of great strength and durability combine with low first cost to make it the outstanding value in its field.
