Drainage of Pavements

Pavement Drainage holds ample significance, as it prevents the accumulation of water or any liquid on the surface of pavements and ensures proper drainage system. With proper design and gradual slopes provided, the water gets easily removed from the surface into the drains, which are essential during heavy rains and unusual weather conditions keeping it less prone to accidents and increasing the durability of the pavement structure.

A pretimed four-phase signal has critical lane group flow rates for the first three phases of 200, 187, and 210 veh/h (saturation flow rates are 1800 veh/h/ln for all phases). The lost time is known to be 4 seconds for each phase. Assuming Xi = 0.9. If the cycle length is 60 seconds, what is the estimated effective green time of the fourth phase?
Subject: transportation engineering Read the question carefully and give me right solution according to the question. A signal has four phases, where the critical lane group flow ratios are 0.115, 0.204, 0.099, and 0.248. If the lost time per phase is 6 seconds and the critical intersection v/c ratio is 0.88, calculate the minimum cycle length and the phase effective green times such that the lane group v/c ratios are equal.

A simple four-legged intersection needs a fixed-time signal. The critical lane flows in the N-S and E-W directions are 950 and 600 veh/hr/ln, respectively. Saturation flow is 1,950 veh/hr/ln and the lost time per phase is 6 seconds. Assume yellow interval is 3 seconds and all red interval is 2 seconds. Determine the cycle length and the distribution of green using Webster’s method.

(1) Calculate the sum of the flow ratios for the critical lane groups. (2) calculate the minimum cycle length and the effective green time for each phase (balancing v/c for the critical lane groups). Assume the lost time is 4 seconds per phase and a critical intersection v/c of 0.90 is desired.
The saturation flow for an intersection approach is 3600 veh/h. At the beginning of cycle no vehicles are queued. The signal is timed so that what the queue is 13 vehicles the effective green begins.
