Fuzzy logic assessment of engineering properties of granular soil with wastes for environment protection and road base use
Afyonkarahisar is a city in Turkey and is rich especially with marble production. Therefore, marble dust piles occupy places in residential fields and agricultural lands or the vicinity of the marble manufacturing facilities. So, the use of those wastes with some amount of fly ashes with granular so...
