A study on life cycle of maintenance during the in use phases of flexible pavement from Pagoh to Machap
Preventive maintenance on pavement is very important to prolong life for both functional and structural strength performance in order to provide comfortable and safe riding to traffics. It is easier and cheaper to repair the pavement surface in time, so that serious damage of the pavement structure...
