Employing local cellulose fibre to reinforce the wearing course of asphalt pavement

The current state of road technology is incapable of alleviating the exponentially increasing traffic volume, that resulting in premature fatigue, cracks, accelerated ageing, permanent deformation, hydroplaning, as well as skidding. As a matter of fact, the wearing course on asphalt pavement is impl...
