Crack investigation on automobile roads in Tashkent region

This study provides an in-depth examination of the processes of crack initiation and propagation on automobile roads under real-world operational conditions. The research aims to better understand how a combination of pavement material characteristics, traffic-induced stresses, and environmental influences contribute to the formation and evolution of cracks over time. To achieve this, a series of comprehensive field surveys were carried out on various selected road sections representing different traffic volumes, climatic conditions, and pavement ages. During these surveys, the types of cracks present, their widths, lengths, and spacing intervals were carefully documented. Data collection was conducted using several complementary methods, including direct visual inspections, systematic photographic recording, and detailed crack mapping techniques.
