Progressive disintegration of the surface between the wheel paths caused by dripping of gasoline or oil from vehicles
Drip track raveling
The extruding of bitumen onto the pavement surface, causing a reduction in skid resistance. it is generally caused by excessive amount of asphalt in the mix or low air voids content. it occurs when asphalt fills the voids in the mix during hot weather and then exudes out onto the surface of the pavement
bleeding or flushing
Elevation differences between adhacenbt slabs at transverse hoints. it is usually the result of pumping and is a major source of portland concrete pavement structure
faulting
Localized upward buickling and shattering of slabs t transverse joint or cracks. They can occur when transverse jkoints are filled with incompressible solid materials
blowups
a series of interconnected or interlaced cracks caused by fatigue failure of the asphalt concrete surface under repeated traffic loading
alligator cracking
cracks forming large interconnected polygons, usually with sharp corners or angle. These cracks are generally caused by hardening and shrinkage of the asphalt and or reflection cracking from underlying layers such as cement treated base
block cracking

topography

horizontal
When a path traveled along the road surface is more than the circumferential movement of the tires due to rotation, what is the resulting motion of the tires.
skidding
This occurs when the heel revolves more than the corresponding longitudinal movement along the road.
slipping
It is the cross slope provided to raise the middle of the road surface in the transverse direction to drain off rain water from road surface
Camber
It is dividing line between carriageway and foothpath
