Objectives: To develop an optimum bituminous mix by studying the properties of construction demolition waste aggregate (CDWA) and plastic as a partial replacement natural coarse bitumen. The performance strength conventional modified were studied using marshall stability test. Methods: Construction is produced crushing screening old concrete from waste, which then used for aggregates in pavemen...

Asphalt concrete pavements have a short life cycle, failing mainly due to temperature changes, traffic loading and ageing. Modified asphalt mixtures provide the technology to produce a bituminous binder with improved viscoelastic properties, which remain in balance over a wider temperature range and loading conditions. In this research, 60/70 penetration grade asphalt binder was modified by add...

We aimed to describe congenital keratoglobus with blue sclera in two siblings with overlapping Marshall/Stickler phenotype. Two sisters (ages four and six) with bilateral high astigmatism were evaluated by slit-lamp microscopy. Corneal topography and pachymetry maps were also obtained. Slit-lamp examination revealed that both corneas were globular in shape with peripheral corneal thinning. Pach...
