Crushed coconut shells as an additive for stabilization treatment of subgrade materials / Alif Akhmizan Mohd Jaya

Road pavement is one of the most important, reliable and widely used infrastructure in transportation system. It consists of base, subbase and subgrade course. Subgrade layer is the most essential in road pavement constructions as it will receive stresses from above pavement layers. However, soil se...
