The purpoee of thie theeie ie to provide e plan and propoeel eliminating the ocnditione exieting at the Judging Pavilion. During the preeent National Emergency it ie practically inpoeeible to obtain eteel reinforcing bare, therefore the eleb and curb will be deeigned without eteel. The plan will be deeigned eo ee to conform to the landecaping echene of the reet of the Campue. THE SURVEY The ueuel preliminary eurwey of the area mn- vclved, and the eurrcunding area wae Iade ueing a traneit and tape. centerline etaticne were eetabliehed and data on the profile, along with.topcgraphic fee. turee of the area were recorded in a field boek. Since the fill eand for the project wae placed last year. croee sectioning eae deemed unneceeeary. After the field work wae done. the field notee were plotted to eoale. Data on the erieting drainage eyetel wee obtained fro-.the Buildinge and Granada Engineering Divieion. ’J -f J<¢-"—_f’—< -5A. Locking net fro- Sta. 04-00 \—"W’Wm‘\\' W, “Km ‘V’ V~W '0 ‘r" .

The propoeed plan wae adopted after careful etudy. and consideration of the engineering problene inrolved in.the‘project. Since the intereection of the new pavement with the exieting pavement forme a Y intereection; it wae deemed feasible that the new grade from etaticn 61-50 up to the intereecticn.be eimilar. ae near as poeeible. to the grade of the exieting pare- nent. The propceed grade wae approved by T.G. Phillipe, Landscape Architect, and woe ooneequently adopted. The parking area ae ehown en the plan, wae deeigned to accomodate approximately 130 care. The curbing and elab wae deeigned without the uee of eteel reinforcing‘bare. Ordinarily the moat economical deeigne involve the uee of dowele at tranveree expaneion or ccnetructicn.jcinte. Le wae etated in the introduction there ie a ehortage of eteel, therefore it wae neceeeary to etrengthen the Jointe by increaeing the thickneee of the concrete at the jointe and gradually tapering back to the re- gular elab thickneee. The fcrnula Lil-I5; d = g wae need in determing the thickneee, where d = depth in inchee c a coefficient of-eubgrade euppcrt . 8 = the allowable working etreee w = 11,000 a o = 1.0 equivalent to a bearing power of 10:? per eq. inch 8 = homilue of Ru ture of Concrete a ety Factor 7009 pereeq. inch w a, vary from 6.000 to 11.000 lbe. Since the road will be occaeionally be need by heavy etcch tructe. and to be conservative the value 11.000, wae need for W. . The above formula and data we obtained free the Portland Cement ieeociaticn. Although the existing type of curbing on the Campue, containe eteel reinforcement . the new curbing and elab, without eteel, will be eimilar in appearance, to the exieting curbing. After etudying the data on exieting drainage ayetem, obtained froze the Buildinge and Grounde -3- Engineering Divieicn, only one new catch baein wae deemed neceeeary. The widening of the intereectione ae anon on the plan ie to facilitate widening and adding curbing to entire road, when funde become available to widen the road to a 30 foot width.
