abstract = {Flexible pavement is an important component of transportation infrastructure because it provides a 

smooth and long-lasting surface for automobile traffic. However, repeated usage and environmental factors can cause degradation, resulting in cracks and potholes. The use of discarded plastic as a maintenance material is one answer to this problem. The use of discarded plastic in pavement repair is a green strategy that lowers plastic pollution while also offering a cost-effective solution. Waste plastic is melted and combined with bitumen, a binding agent used in the manufacturing of asphalt. The resultant slurry is then utilised to patch cracks and potholes in the pavement, resulting in a long-lasting and resilient repair. Several studies have demonstrated the efficacy of waste plastic in pavement 

repair. The usage of waste plastic has been shown to boost the longevity of pavement repairs, minimise the development of potholes and fractures, and improve the pavement's skid resistance. Furthermore, it has been shown that the use of waste plastic reduces the quantity of bitumen required in pavement repairs, resulting in cost savings. To summarise, using waste plastic in pavement repair is a viable strategy to addressing the problem of deteriorating flexible pavement. The use of discarded plastic not only provides a practical option for pavement repair, but it also helps to reduce plastic pollution and promotes sustainability.},

abstract = {Loose soil is an expansive type of soil that undergoes sudden expansion and swelling upon contact with water. This property leads to poor strength and other unfavourable characteristics of the soil. The behavior of loose soil can be highly unpredictable when subjected to various types of stabilizers. Soil stabilization refers to a technique used to address, modify, or enhance the performance of soil. In this study, the effectiveness of limestone, fly ash, and rice husk ash (RHA) powder as beneficial additives for loose soil is evaluated. The analysis focuses on determining the strength properties of loose soil in its natural state and after being mixed with different proportions of limestone powder, fly ash, and RHA. To address the issues of swelling and shrinkage, the soil is replaced with a stabilizing agent comprising 10% of the dry weight. A comparison is made between the properties of 100% loose soil and the combination of various percentages of limestone powder, fly ash, and rice husk ash to assess the impact of the stabilizer on the soil. The results indicate a significant reduction in the swelling andshrinkage of the soil.},
