The influence of asphalt mixture on rutting properties using pet (polyethylene terephthalate) as additive in flexible pavement

The influence of asphalt mixture on rutting properties using pet (polyethylene terephthalate) as additive in flexible pavement

Most plastic collected for recycling from the household waste stream and the majority plastic bottle come from Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET). Rutting or permanent deformation is one of the most important failure mechanisms in asphalt pavement. The objective of this study is to determine the rutt...
