194. German technologies in road building: how is it possible to build a high-quality road that lasts for decades?
There are several things that
can’t ignore while building high –quality road that lasts for decades. High-quality
materials and design or engineering plays very important role maintain the road.
Also it’s very important to know why we are building a road. What kind of
vehicles run on that certain road. There are some countries that are famous on
their technologies in building roads. One of the countries is Germany.
According to (catalin, 2018) Germany has very good
roads perfectly straight and without any bumps. The secret behind the reason is
German use very advanced machinery and technology to build road.
According to (Bridge, 2019) German road is far
better than many countries for their construction and engineering. They let the
concrete thicker than other countries which makes no speed limit in their
highway. The following points will be
mentioned some of the methods or technologies they use for building roads.
Traditional method
According to (services, 2018) German go for
innovative technologies for building roads such as soil stabilisation and etc. also
(services, 2018) says they use for
construction traditional methods such as five – six layers of materials like
soil, metal and gravel have to be laid.
fully depth recycling method
German also used one of the technologies called fully depth recycling;
the technology uses cement and chemicals for stabilization of the road.
Road pulverised
As per the process, the existing BT road will be covered by another
layer of cement, over which a chemical compound of certain prescribed quantity will
be sprayed. Then the road will be pulverized up to thirty centimeter and mixed
with water, before being compacted using pad rollers.
In conclusion, German is very good in engineering works such as building
roads and construction. German use quality materials for building and they get
higher tax from drivers for building roads.
