Stabilization of highway embankment using stabilized cohesive frictional soil with shredded scrap tire / Anas Ibrahim … [et al.]

Limitation of exceptional construction sites, particularly due to fast growing of human population and economic development is common nowadays in Malaysia. Utilization of waste materials, which are lightweight, was one of the possible solutions that can be used to solve bearing capacity and sett...
