Opis

The book aims in studying the effective use of stone dust from crushers, an environmental pollutant from building construction industry, in the construction of roads and pavements. It covers the experimental studies conducted by mixing different percentages of stone dust with locally available soil. Stone dust can be used as an effective stabilizing agent for sub-base and base courses for roads constructed in soils with low California Bearing Ratio and hence the problem of disposal of stone dust is taken care.
