With the use of these layers in Flexible Payment Road a stable surface can be formed. The constructions of roads consume natural valuable resources like aggregate which is costlier. The use of recycled aggregate instead of virgin aggregate helps in reducing the demand of extraction. If a new Road is formed over the existing road or if bridge is constructed over the existing road due t...
