Principales reseñas sobre MASTERING BITUMEN FOR BETTER ROADS AND INNOVATIVE APPLICATIONS
por KA12 de jul. de 2020
Course improved my knowledge on bitumen history, characteristics and applications but their should be complete delivering of knowledge on modern techniques about Marshal stability and super pave.
por MA14 de sep. de 2019
Its a good course covering information about bitumen market, its specifications, properties, safety and much more. I would recommend this course to students and people working in road sectors.
por AM5 de ago. de 2020
This is a wonderful course with overview of the bitumen and its applications. If possible, please provide more time on development of master curves through DSR and MSCR test.
por MA10 de ene. de 2017
The course is really help full and it contains all the topics and things about bitumen, by taking this course I am sure you will never faced to problem relaying to bitumen.
