Abstract: Let $XinextAlex{,}^n(-1)$ be an $n$-dimensional Alexandrov space with curvature $ge-1$. Let the $r$-scale $(k,epsilon)$-singular set $mathcal{S}_{epsilon,,r}^k(X)$ be the collection of $xinX$ so that $B_r(x)$ is not $epsilonr$-close to a ball in any splitting space $mathbb{R}^{k+1}imesZ$. We show that there exists $C(n,epsilon)>0$ and $$, independent of the volume, so that for any disjoint collection $$, the packing estimate $sum{r}_i^{k}leC$ holds. Consequently, we obtain the Hausdorff measure estimates $mathcal{H}^k(mathcal{S}_e^{k}psilon(X)cap{B}_1)leC$ and $$. This answers an open question asked by Kapovitch and Lytchak. We also show that the $k$-singular set $mathcal{S}^k(X)=undersetepsilon>0cupleft(undersetr>0capmathcal{S}_{epsilon,,r}^{k}ight)$ is $k$-rectifiable and construct examples to show that such a structure is sharp. For instance, in the $k=1$ case we can build for any closed set $Tsubseteqmathbb{S}^1$ and $epsilon>0$ a space $Yinext{Alex}^3(0)$ with $mathcal{S}_e^{1}psilon(Y)=phi(T)$, where $phicolonmathbb{S}^{1}oY$ is a bi-Lipschitz embedding. Taking $T$ to be a Cantor set it gives rise to an example where the singular set is a $1$-rectifiable, $1$-Cantor set with positive $1$-Hausdorff measure.
