Description The overlay of a cracked pavement is subject to reflective cracking due the existing crack potential. In a cracked pavement, this cracking potential can be evaluated by beans of the crack activity due to traffic loads and the temperature gradient. In this work, the crack activity was measured with a Crack Activity Meter on 14 test sections of Portuguese flexible pavements. The resulting crack activities were analyzed and the influence of pavement conditions was evaluated, which in turn lead to the development of a model to predict crack activity before overlay.
