Analysis of stone mastic asphalt (SMA) slab dimensions for evaluation of the newly developed roller compactor (Turamesin)

Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) is one type of asphalt mixture which is highly dependent on the method of compaction as compared to conventional Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) mixture. A suitable laboratory compaction method which can closely simulate field compaction is evidently needed as future trend in asphal...
