Defects/Deficiencies Probable Cause/s
1 Major Scaling
insufficient cement paste
on concrete mix
improper procedure of
work
weather condition
improper curing
too much water
poor quality of cement
2 Transverse crack
within the middle settlement of base and sub
third base due to inadequate
compaction
3 Transverse crack
outside the middle Due to unfavorable
third weather condition
Contraction of expansion
of concrete
4 Longitudinal crack
Insufficient prepared road
width
5 Multiple/criss-
cross/series cracks Total base failure
Recommendation/s
have adequate
concrete mix
follow the right
design mix and
procedure of
concreting
apply glass weld
facilitate proper
curing
Base of concrete
must attain 100%
compaction
Concrete mixture
must attained its
workability and
durability
Provide contraction
joint or weakened
plane joint before it
passes to 24 hours
after pouring
Maintain the full
road width
preparation
Remove and replace
the damage PCCP
and prepare the sub
base to its maximum
compaction
