Influence of aggregate flakiness on marshall properties for asphaltic concrete (AC14) mixture

Flaky aggregate is normally avoided in bituminous mixtures because it influences the aggregate gradation, reduces interlocking characteristics and due to that it should be therefore limited. This thesis presents a study of laboratory evaluation on the effects of flaky aggregates in asphaltic concret...
