Consider how shapes impact the way materials fit together.
True or False: Flat and elongated particles enhance the performance of asphalt pavements.
Think about the implications of having non-uniform shapes.
Design an asphalt mixture for a region prone to heavy rainfall. Detail how you would choose aggregates considering the discussed properties.
