| Summary: | Currently, using waste materials in civil and construction engineering is of great interest to researchers and industry. This study investigates the impact of using waste polyethylene terephthalate plastic and nano-silica to modify asphalt mixtures following Australian design guidelines and criteria; different types of asphalt mixtures, waste plastic types and contents, nano-silica size are used to investigate and determine the mechanical properties of the modified asphalt mixtures. |
