Negative impacts to road surface Road surface marking
road surface raveling , potholes found exclusively along pavement markings
non-mechanical markers found contribute deterioration of asphalt concrete road surface courses. paint , tape markers can cause road surface crack, , in more severe cases, markers contribute road surface raveling (a process in aggregate particles dislodged road surface, causing surface texture become pitted , rough) or potholes.
this type of surface damage can found exclusively underneath pavement markings such lane markings , turn-lane arrows. there no definitive explanation of relationship between pavement markings , surface deterioration, there several hypotheses. 1 water vapor may have been trapped underneath road surface markings, causing de-bonding of asphalt binder aggregate materials. hypothesis reflectivity of markings may create differences in solar heating , thermal expansion strains between areas , without markings. small flaws caused differential strains may combined longitudinal cracks along markings. there surface treatments can make road surface less susceptible type of distresses, such slurry seals , stone mastic asphalt.
