The aim of this research is a site study for flexible surface pavement distresses in ring road no.

(80) in Hilla city which is two directions road of (9.85) km length, (8.0) m pavement width, (2.5) m shoulders and (5) m median width.

The road consist of asphaltic concrete layer (10) cm thickness, sub base of (20) cm thickness and embankment about (1.0) m.

The road pavement distresses that appeared despite its short age which is about five years raised inquiries.
