What causes potholes in streets?

It is usually caused by fatigue in the pavement surface. As fatigue fractures develop they typically interlock in a pattern known as "alligator cracking". The chunks of pavement between fatigue cracks are worked loose and may eventually be picked out of the surface by continued wheel loads, thus forming a pothole. [Continuing discussion] Ice wedging, maybe? Water freezes and expands in cracks, weakening the road. The process repeats itself, and soon the street cannot withstand its own weight.


What are the mode of failure of a 'Flexible' and a 'Rigid' pavement in the contents of 'High way engineerin'?

Flexible pavement typically fails due to fatigue cracking, rutting, and moisture damage.
