A new generation of self-compacting earth-based composites (SCEC) for vertical elements with fully exposed earth, in which the main feature is elimination compaction, proposed current work. The first objective was to develop mixture compositions locally available raw materials and achieve self-compactability. Portuguese soil, typically employed rammed earth construction, stabilised using cement...

Abstract Filler’s presence in hot-mix asphalt (HMA) is even though minimal but they do affect its durability characteristics. Many natural and waste materials the form of fillers have been studied for their effectiveness on HMA mix design performance However, practice, stone dust (SD) preferred filler due to abundance, ease availability, cost-effectiveness. Thus, major objective this study was ...
