Generally, for thin bituminous pavements, the minimum camber should be 2.5% to cater for drainage of the surface runoffs.

In the hilly area where we can provide a minimum of 2.5% camber,& maximum of 10% camber.
Although 7% is max required for the road as per ISI. But in hill road, we can avoid as per position.

For camber.
In CC road it is 1 in 50.
Thin bitumen 1 in 40.
Gravel 1 in 33.
Earthen 1 in 25.

Camber for the thin bituminous surface.
In high rainfall - 2.5% or 1 in 40.
In light rainfall -2% or 1 in 40.
In high rainfall - 2.5% or 1 in 40.
In light rainfall -2% or 1 in 40.

Hill roads = Heavy Rainfall = 1in 40 = 2.5.

CC/High Bituminous road - 1.7%(light rainfall), 2%(heavy rainfall).
Thin Bituminous road - 2%(light rainfall), 2.5(heavy rainfall).
WBM/gravel road - 2.5%(light rainfall), 3%(heavy rainfall).
Earthen raod - 3%(light rainfall), 4%(heavy rainfall).

Please, anyone, tell me what is the max limit of camber in hilly roads.

If the crown is provided then there would be tension in upper and concrete are weak in tension, the crack will produce.
