Project Outline
During the last decade, Kayson has invested more in the export of
technical and engineering services than any other contracting and
engineering firm in Iran's private sector, thereby acquiring a wealth of
experience in the management and implementation of overseas projects.
The Widening and Strengthening of Andhra Pradesh State Highway (APSH 9)
is just one example.
General Specifications
The project called for the widening of the
road's existing width of 5 meters to two 3.5-meter lanes, construction
of two 1.5-meter asphalt-paved and two 1-meter earth shoulders.
Surfacing
The road's surfacing consisted of a 30-centimeter subbase layer, a 25-30
centimeter base layer, a layer of bitumen, plus a 3-centimeter asphalt
layer.
