The effectiveness of tires chips in gabion wall for slope protection

Waste tire in Malaysia are neither categorized as solid waste or hazardous waste. It is generally consider as business or trade waste, hence currently there is no specific law or regulation, which govern waste tire management. This thesis study about the effectiveness of tire chips to use as raw mat...
