Parking Lot Overlay Task Group Meets in St. Louis

A meeting in St. Louis last week brought together some of the most knowledgeable contractors and designers of parking lot overlays, reports Jon Hansen, NRMCA senior vice president, local paving. "The concrete industry has a large number of concrete overlays of asphalt parking lots under its belt," Hansen said. "The time is right to learn from these experienced people the best practices for successful parking lot overlay projects. We were fortunate to have at this meeting the contractor who completed the Pinehurst Country Club overlay project and the contractor who has claim to the largest overlay project in the nation, a school project in Missouri. Also attending was the lead engineer with a St. Louis consulting firm that has designed 18 parking lot overlay projects and American Society of Concrete Contractors (ASCC) Executive Director Bev Garnett," said Hansen.
