The owners of the Greenwell Inn and Convention Center in Price, Utah were considering upgrading their parking lot to complement recent upgrades in their motel and convention center, reports NRMCA Vice President, Local Paving, Don Clem. He said Rick Krompel of RL Krompel Contracting, a Price-based general contractor, approached NRMCA for assistance, requesting an overlay design through the Design Assistance Program (DAP). With input from Mr. Krompel, Clem then prepared a DAP for a 3.5-inch concrete (5 foot joint spacing) overlay for the 19,500 square foot parking area (seen below). The project, which required 220 cubic yards of ready mixed concrete, was supplied by NRMCA Producer member company Geneva Rock Products.
Mr. Krompel constructed the lot based on recommendations outlined in the Guide to Concrete Overlays of Asphalt Parking Lots, which was funded by the Ready Mixed Concrete Research & Education Foundation.
