Characterization of soil mixed with garnet waste for road shoulder

This paper presents the finding of the characterization of soil mixed with garnet waste for road shoulder. Road shoulder at local road nowadays has insufficient compaction due to local settlement and further compaction by parked vehicles. Garnet waste is one the industrial waste that getting bulkier...
