Reasons for pothole formation
Many reasons cause the depression on roads. The expansion and contraction of water is the most prominent reason. Apart from that, poor quality road construction, the volume of traffic, lack of proper road maintenance, lack of pavement thickness, and lack of proper drainage contribute to potholes. It is generally discovered that wet conditions, as well as rainy seasons, can aggravate the situation. Anyway, pothole filling material of high quality can be a great help.
Potholes & Rainy season
The structure of asphalt pavement and potholes have interconnected. An asphalt road comprises base course, subbase course, subgrade and asphalt layer. When water enters the underlying pavement structure, it causes structural deformation and leads to the creation of potholes. In addition, the pavement will have to bear the volume of traffic when it is weak to bear the traffic. Rain or any kind of water entered on asphalt pavement deteriorates the bitumen layer and decrements the load capacity of the underlying pavement layer.
Prevention is better than tackling potholes
Like afflictions, the roads need to be properly maintained to avoid severe pothole formations. Paying heed to the following things can be a great help in the prevention of pits. So road constructors need not resort to pothole filling material on a regular basis.
