The project in five facts.
Challenge, approach and results.
In Slovenia, the construction of the motorway cross is nearing completion. Public opinions on the quality and durability of their roads are very divided. **In professional circles, the prevailing opinion is that Slovenia builds high-quality roads, whilst road users in particular complain about the 'poor quality' of their roads. ** The warranty period for road elements is between 2 and 10 years (depending on the road category, types of materials used, etc.), however, according to users' experience, the first damage can appear even before the warranty period expires.
Problem
In Slovenia, the construction of the motorway cross is nearing completion. Public opinions on the quality and durability of their roads are very divided. **In professional circles, the prevailing opinion is that Slovenia builds high-quality roads, whilst road users in particular complain about the 'poor quality' of their roads. ** According to data from the Ministry of Transport, state roads are on average renovated every 34 years (roads are designed for 20 years).
Solution and Method
The warranty period for road elements is between 2 and 10 years (depending on the road category, types of materials used, etc.), however, according to users' experience, the first damage can appear even before the warranty period expires. The causes of damage are very diverse, namely: – traffic load; – climatic influences; – deficient execution; – poor maintenance; – inappropriate use. The most common cause of damage is a combination of the above-mentioned factors.
In the diploma thesis, the author presented the basic causes of damage occurrence, types of damage, and their consequences.
