Influence of flaky aggregate on marshall properties for asphaltic concrete AC20 mixture

Aggregate is the most important material that been used widely in the road pavement construction together with asphalt binder. The problem scenario is referring the road problems such as deformation, surface defect, cracks and edge defects. Basically, these study is absolutely focusing on influence...
