The section shown is an AC pavement over a cement treated base in California (Interstate 5). Notice the pumping of fines through the cracks in the AC pavement. This photo illustrates ponding of water on the road caused by a localized settlement. Depressions in the road allow water to stand on the surface. This can cause stripping on the AC layers and water can slowly seep into the pavement and saturate the underlying layers thereby accelerating distress developing. This figure shows the level of deflection for the same materials when saturated to different degrees. Increased saturation generally results in increased deflections. This photo illustrates a high-severity pothole filled with water which accelerates the surrounding cracking and increases its size. This figure illustrates the relationship between resilient modulus and saturation for a selection of Illinois soils. For these soils, the modulus decreases significantly as the soil becomes more saturated. The combination of reduced resilient modulus and heavy truck traffic results in greater distress or damage on the pavement. This photo illustrates the pumping of water and fines from the transverse joint as a rapidly moving truck load is applied. Pumping and erosion of the underlying layers are the most prevalent moisture-related problems associated with jointed PCC pavements. Pumping was disastrous at the AASHO Road Test, where virtually every section that failed was preceded by excessive pumping of the base course. Faulting is the most serious cause of roughness in jointed PCC pavements. This photo illustrates water and fine materials pumping from the longitudinal joint between the pavement and the shoulder. Wide openings at the joint provide an escape route for water on bathtub sections. This is a common occurrence after heavy rains or during spring thaw periods. Faulting is a direct result of pumping and erosion and is measured as the difference in elevation of two adjacent slabs at a crack
