Performance of various aggregate gradings in wearing course / Taquddin Azmy Zawawi

The aggregate required in a road construction for a given pavement layer depends very much upon the form of construction which will be used. In common practice, aggregates are to be sorted beforehand into a number of closely graded 'single size' which may be subsequently remixed in desir...
