ABSTRACT

One of the major problems facing the country is pavement failure. It is the concern of the Institute of Management and Technology (IMT) authorities to carryout a case study of pavement failure along Hillview off ESBS Road Enugu.
The investigation show that the pavement failed both structural and functionally taking into consideration.
The possible cause cure:-
(a)Poor sub-grade & sub-base
(b)Lack of maintenance culture
(c)Poor drainage system 
(d)Poor workmanship
(e)Inaccurate
