Exploration on pavement surface conditions attributed to Mineral freight and logistics operations on kuantan road Network

The most active mineral mining operations in Malaysia are located in Kuantan, Pahang. The rapid increases of the minerals operations are of concern due to its significant impacts on the environment and human health. While effects to the environment and human health are a great of concern, the effec...
