The paper presents experimental studies on the geophysical survey of Almaty – Nur-Sultan highway sections, which located 100 km. from Almaty, Almaty region of the Republic of Kazakhstan. As the object of study selected highway sections in 3 places: on the highway section with a well-preserved coating to identify layers; on the highway section with obvious damage (with holes, potholes, horizontal and grid cracks); on the section of the highway with a drainage pipe. Since the formulation of the problem requires the use of a non-destructive, fast method that gives an idea of the layer structures with an accuracy of ± 0.1 m., experimental studies were conducted using the ground penetrating radar (GPR) «Loza B» using different antennas, with different profile steps for accuracy. The results of the geophysical survey of the structure of the underlying layers and asphalt for the detection of defects and their causes are presented. The results of this work can be used to develop compositions of asphalt concrete mixtures with high temperature stability, strength and durability, considering the climatic conditions in order to ensure the safety of road surfaces during operation.
