Sustainable Road Construction Using Plastic Waste: Structural Performance, Economic Feasibility and Ecological Assessment
Abstract
This manuscript is a preprint version derived from an M.Tech dissertation in Civil Engineering. The study investigates the use of plastic waste in flexible pavement construction, focusing on structural performance, economic feasibility, and environmental sustainability. Laboratory tests including Marshall Stability, CBR, and ITS were conducted to evaluate performance improvements in bitumen modified with waste plastic.
