The free mean speed is 60 km/hr on a given road. The average space headway at jam density on this road is 8 m. For a linear speed-density relationship, the maximum flow (in veh/hr/lane) expected on the road is

The number of trains and their corresponding speeds for a curved Broad Gauge section with 437 m radius, are

• 20 trains travel at a speed of 40 km/hr
• 15 trains travel at a speed of 50 km/hr
• 12 trains travel at a speed of 60 km/hr
• 8 trains travel at a speed of 70 km/hr
• 3 trains travel at a speed of 80 km/hr

If the gauge (center-to-center distance between the rail heads) is taken as 1750 mm, the required equilibrium cant (in mm) will be _______ (rounded off to the nearest integer).

The figure presents the trajectories of six vehicles within a time-space domain. The number in the parentheses represents a unique identification of each vehicle.


The mean speed (in km/hr) of the vehicles in the entire time-space domain is ____________ (rounded off to the nearest integer).

The following data is obtained from an axle load survey at a site:

Average rear axle load = 12000 kg
Number of commercial vehicles = 800 per day

The pavement at this site would be reconstructed over a period of 5 years from the date of the survey. The design life of the reconstructed pavement is 15 years. Use the standard axle load as 8160 kg and the annual average vehicle growth rate is 4.0%. Assume that Equivalent Wheel Load Factor (EWLF) and Vehicle Damage Factor (VDF) are equal.

The cumulative standard axle (in msa) for the pavement design is ____________ (rounded off to 2 decimal places).
