 ABSTRACT

The intersection of railway track and the road at a similar level is alluded to a level
intersection. In the urban territories the level intersection are for the most part observed by
qualified railway work force who screen the train development and close the level
intersection entryway to stop the meddling road traffic yet such shutting of doors prompts
blockage in road traffic and furthermore makes loss of time road clients. Road under
extension and road over scaffold are considered as answers for keeping away from level
intersections of roads and railway track.
There are 3 principle methods in development of road under extension. Box pushing
method, Cut and spread method, Rolling procedure utilizing RH support. In this we examine
about the executes, soil rubbing, impacts required, limit of jacks and there utilizations, skew
edges and at square edges.

Keywords: Road under Bridge, Level Crossing, Box Pushing Method and RUB etc…
