User:Alec r 623/ Lead Section

The lead section for this article looks like it pretty much covers the basics.

Current lead section:

Crocodile Cracking, also called alligator cracking, is interconnecting or interlaced cracking in a road seal resembling the hide of a crocodile. Cell sizes can vary in size up to 300mm across, but are typically less than 150mm across. Crocodile Cracking is a form of pavement failure.[1][2] It is often a sign of subbase failure or poor drainage. {fact}

I may add that it is caused by repeated loadings.
