Abstract:
Globally, flash-flood catastrophe is not a neoteric occurrence as the disastrous proneness breathes periodically enormous, especially in the area of study Ibeno that flood is periodically attributed to coastal flooding. Foundationally, the delineation of road structures is based on the strength of consolidated soil avowed as the subgrade. Subsequently, the subgrade is the in situ material upon which the roadway structure is placed. It is necessary to know the modes of damage to roads caused by flooding before embarking on it rehabilitation. This study assesses the effect of road flooding durability depths on the subgrade stability of soil samples actualized on the Kwa Ibo Upenekang road in Ibeno that was extremely faulty by flash-flood. Wet and dry soil samplings were assessed for California Bearing ratio (CBR), Particle size distributions, Atterberg limit, Group index, and resilient modulus. Resilient Modulus was evaluated for stress to strain relationship for the subgrade. CBR tests for upgrading of plunge, flood limit, durability, and firmness of its fittingness. Atterberg limit determination along with particle size distributions tests set on the bearing of soil as subgrade weighty. For durable flooding, the depth and dimensions of flooded subgrade strength show a lower value. In addition, particle and Atterberg limit resolutions show a fast and soaring existence of deputation for the lengthened durability.
