Cyclic loading tests on sandstone and limestone shale aggregates used in unbound forest roads [PDF]
Construction and Building Materials, 2009 This study examined the performance of two aggregates subjected to cyclic loading in a large-scale test rig. The two aggregates examined were: (i) a sandstone from Co. Cork, Ireland and (ii) a limestone shale from Co. Limerick, Ireland. The aggregates were classified and their engineering properties established and compared.
