Performance of modified cold dense graded asphalt mix using oil palm fruit ash (OPFAsh)

A lot of research has been conducted in order to investigate other alternative material as a modifier in asphalt mixtures whether for hot mix asphalt or cold mix asphalt. This thesis presents a study of laboratory evaluation on the performance of modified cold dense asphalt mix by incorporating the...
