Utilization of waste high density polyethylene (HDPE) as course aggregate replacement and glasses as filler in hot mix asphalt

Flexible, rigid and composite are the three typical types of pavements. Commonly, flexible pavement is used especially in municipal, state and federal road in Malaysia. It consists five layers such as subgrade, subbase, base, base course and wearing course. In addition, the main structural function...
