NRMCA Senior Director, Local Paving, Ken Justice recently taught a full day concrete pavement design seminar in Jessup, MD.
More than 50 engineers and municipal and public works officials attended;(shown below) topics included definitions of the different types of concrete pavements along with selection criteria, an introduction to the concrete pavement design software packages and a "sneak peek" of the soon-to-be-released unified design software package developed by the NRMCA/ACPA/PCA team. Pavement design project examples were also given. The class concluded with design examples of parking lots, sidewalks, driveways and handicapped ramps as well as troubleshooting and maintenance.
Justice notes that the NRMCA paving team would like to repeat this program in other locations. For more information, contact him at kjustice@nrmca.org.
