Scientists have demonstrated that a combination of building rubble and old tires could be utilized as a sustainable material for making roads, offering a zero-waste solution to support the circular economy and increase recycling. Researchers used special machinery to assess how the recycled material pe...
7572. Lines, E. March 29. Paving-materials.-To reduce the effects of air and moisture on roads made of Kentish rag, blue stone, cold blast slag, or similar macadamizing- material, the stones are dried and heated, and impregnated under pressure with petroleum or a mixture of petroleum ...
After stone,gravel,cobblestoneandgranite settswere used in making roads, which were then replaced as road making was refined. Today, asphalt and concrete are the most common materials for paving roads in modernity. The type of material used in making roads depends on the project’s budget and ...
Potholes are a big road problem you've probably seen before. They often show up in the spring after water trapped in the pavement freezes over winter and then melts in spring. This melting process weakens the road, making it more breakable. Then, when vehicles drive over it, they can crea...

The economic activity in Jordan during the last 10 years has caused a substantial increase in traffic, which in turn has affected the condition of pavements, especially those designed for lower traffic volumes. Many stretches of roads will have to be improved or reconstructed earlier than expected...
It’s used to build many things, including roads, sidewalks, and buildings. But making concrete creates a lot of pollution. And it uses a lot of sand. Mining for sand creates other problems for the environment. Siswanti Zuraida from the University of Kitakyushu in Japan had an unusual idea...
Several materials are required for construction. The materials used inthe construction of Engineering Structures such as buildings, bridges androads are called Engineering Materials or Building Materials. They include Bricks, Timber, Cement, Steel and Plastics.The materials used in Civil Engineering constru...
