Utilization of coconut shell as fine aggregate in asphaltic concrete AC14
Many previous studies have been done to carry out the waste material that can use to increase the performance of road pavement. Oil palm kernel shell, scrap tyre, and building waste material are the example of waste material that have been investigate to replace aggregate in road construction. Anoth...
