OverlayMillCrown

This subassembly adds an overlay layer on top of an existing crowned carriageway with a milling layer added as required.

Attachment

The attachment point is the crown point of the overlay layer with finished ground crossfall.

Input Parameters

Note: Note: All dimensions are in metres or feet unless otherwise noted. All slopes are in run-over-rise form unless indicated as a percent slope with a "%" sign.
Parameter Description Type Default
Crown Offset Positive or negative offset of the crown point. Numeric 0.000m (0.000 ft)
Crown Use Profile Options Select to tie the inside edge of the overlay crown point to a profile, or adjust crown point level to meet minimum mill depth. User defined Minimum Mill Depth
Design Lane Width same as Existing Lane Width
  • Yes

    Specifies that the design lane width is the same as existing lane width.

  • No

    Specifies that the design lane width is not the same as existing lane width.

    Note: If No is selected, the Inside Edge of Existing Lane and Outside Edge of Existing Lane parameters will not be applied to the subassembly.
User defined No
Inside Edge of Existing Left Lane This is the start point for calculating existing ground slope for the left lane. Numeric 0.000m (0.000 ft)
Inside Edge of Existing Right Lane This is the start point for calculating existing ground slope for the right lane. Numeric 0.000m (0.000 ft)
Outside Edge of Existing Left Lane This is the end point for calculating existing ground slope for the left lane. Numeric 12.000m (12.00 ft)
Outside Edge of Existing Right Lane This is the end point for calculating existing ground slope for the right lane. Numeric 12.000m (-12.000 ft)
Overlay Depth Depth of the overlay layer. Numeric, positive 0.600m (0.600 ft)
Right and Left Overlay Slope Options Specifies right and left overlay slope options
Tip: Flapping is a term used to describe how the Corrected Crossfall for an overlay in a rehab subassembly is calculated. Flapping outcomes are different, relative to the Slope Tolerance and the Slope Difference between existing ground crossfall and ideal crossfall. If the Slope Difference is less than the Slope Tolerance for the subassembly, then the use case is considered 'within tolerance'. If the Slope Difference is greater than the Slope Tolerance for the subassembly, then the use case is considered 'without tolerance'.
Note: Slope Tolerance is an absolute value. Therefore, for either a Slope Difference of 0.4% or -0.4%, both have an absolute value of 0.4%. If the Slope Tolerance is 0.5%, the 0.4% absolute Slope Difference would be considered within tolerance.
  • User Defined with Flapping
    Flapping specifies how the Corrected Crossfall will be calculated, relative to the slope tolerance for the subassembly
    • Flapping Within Tolerance:

      Corrected Crossfall will be set as close as possible to the Existing Ground Crossfall and will also attempt to meet Minimum Level Depth

    • Flapping Without Tolerance:

      Corrected Crossfall will be set as close as possible to the Existing Ground Crossfall within Slope Tolerance

  • User Defined Without Flapping
    Flapping specifies how the Corrected Crossfall will be calculated, relative to Slope Tolerance for the subassembly
    • Flapping Within Tolerance:

      Corrected Crossfall will be set equal to Ideal Crossfall

    • Flapping Without Tolerance:

      Corrected Crossfall will be set as close as possible to the Ideal Crossfall, within Slope Tolerance.

  • Outside/Inside Lane Superelevation
    Outside or Inside Lane Superelevation will replace Ideal Crossfall. Corrected Crossfall values for the overlay layer will be defined by the superelevation table for the section instead of the Ideal Crossfall.
    Note: If Outside/Inside Lane Superelevation is chosen but the alignment for the rehab corridor doesn't have a superelevation table defined, Ideal Crossfall will be used instead.
  • Match Slope

    The Corrected Crossfall is always set equal to Existing Ground Slope

  • Use Ideal Crossfall

    The Corrected Crossfall Slope is always set equal to Ideal Crossfall

Right Minimum Mill Depth The minimum mill depth between the existing surface and the bottom of the left overlay layer. Numeric, positive 0.300m (0.300 ft)
Right Slope Tolerance Tolerance for varying the left overlay slope. Numeric 0.50%

Behaviour

This subassembly assumes that no levelling layer is added. Flapping must be within tolerance to meet minimum mill. The level at the crown will meet both sides.
