How much bitumen is needed for a 10km Road?

                                               How much bitumen is needed for a 10km Road?   The amount of bitumen needed to build a 10 km road varies on a number of variables, including the road's width and thickness, the style of pavement (flexible or rigid), the climate in the area, the subgrade conditions, and the kind of traffic the road will handle. According to a rough calculation, flexible pavements may need 3–4 kg of bitumen per square meter of road surface, but rigid pavements may need 5–6 kg per square meter. According to this calculation, the total amount of bitumen needed for a 10 km road with a width of 7 meters and a thickness of 150 mm (0.15 meters) would be roughly: (10,000 m) x (7 m) x (0.15 m) x (4 kg/m^2) = 4,200 kg Note that this is a rough estimate and actual requirements may vary.
