About RVR&JC College of Engineering
R.V.R. & J.C. College of Engineering (Autonomous),
Guntur established in 1985 is one of the premier
engineering colleges in Andhra Pradesh in
the
self-financing category. Promoted by Nagarjuna
Education Society, this is the most sought after college
in the region. The institute offers seven B.Tech. degree
programmes, five M. Tech. programmes, MBA and MCA.
R.V.R. & J.C. College of Engineering is one of the few
engineering colleges that were accredited four times in
1998, 2002, 2007 and 2012. The college consistently
figured among the top 100 engineering colleges in the
country and was awarded the Best Performing
Engineering College in the Acharya Nagarjuna
University Examination results for the last five
consecutive years. Further, the college is graded as AA+
by Careers 360 magazine in May, 2012.The college is
accredited ‘A’ grade by NAAC in 2014
Indian Geotechnical Society (IGS) Guntur Chapter
Inaugurated in the year 2003, IGS Guntur Chapter has
been one of the most vibrant chapters of the national
professional body. The chapter, which has over 300
members, has organized several conferences,
seminars and work-shops, the most significant being
IGC-2009.
About Department of Civil Engineering

to cater to the needs of the students.
About the Seminar
Well performing and safe pavements are absolutely
essential for improving the quality of life and the
challenges that need to be addressed are rehabilitation
the existing roads as well as construction of new roads
under increasing energy prices, aggregate shortages
and the global warming. Introduction of new materials,
reduction of cost and by saving energy and time are
much needed for sustainable development. Introducing
geosynthetics
in the pavement layers improves the
strength and stiffness of the flexible pavement.
Scientifically designed and constructed Cement Concrete
and White Topping roads ensure more longevity, safety
and comfort. The long-term performance of white
topping roads depends on the bond between the overlay
and the bituminous road and joint space. Non Destructive
tests like Falling Weight Deflectometer and Ground
Penetrating Radar can be used to evaluate the structural
condition of the pavement and pavement layer thickness
and other properties. The workshop will provide an
opportunity to share and explore new ideas and to review
innovations in the practical application of using
sustainable construction materials and new techniques in
Pavement Engineering.
