An Experimental Investigation on the Effect of Calcium Chloride As Dust Suppressant on the Strength of Unpaved Road by Walid Abdullah Al Bargi, Walid Abdullah Al Bargi, Nasradeen Ali Khalifa, Nasradeen Ali Khalifa, Basil David Daniel, Basil David Daniel, Munzilah Md. Rohani, Munzilah Md. Rohani, Oluwasegun Samuel Odebiyi, Oluwasegun Samuel Odebiyi

“…It can be inferred from the results that calcium chloride has the potential to function as a stabilizer for unpaved roads. The findings of this study are expected to reduced life cycle costs for unpaved roads, provide insights for the best approach to materials analysis for unpaved roads, and contribute to environmental benefits by minimizing dust emissions into the atmosphere and reducing the release of chemicals into nature.…”
