Asessing the Compressive Strength Properties of Semi-Flexible Pavements
Abstract Semi-flexible pavements are manufactured by producing a very open porous asphalt skeleton and filling the voids with selected cementitious grouts. The resultant composites, referred to as “grouted macadams”, combine the flexibility of the...
