Corporate Training By Zack Academy - In-Place Asphalt Recycling and Pavement Preservation Programs

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Why Should You Take This In-Place Asphalt Recycling and Pavement Preservation Programs course?

In this 2-day In-Place Asphalt Recycling and Pavement Preservation Programs course, learn the essentials of how to successfully maintain an existing Pavement Management System, or implement a new system from scratch within your agency. By the end of this course, participants will be able to also confidently specify & bid projects with in-place asphalt recycling and eco-efficient pavement preservation techniques. They will also learn how these same projects may also be eligible for special grants and funding options under the climate initiatives in certain locales.

After completing the course, attendees will also be able to make informed decisions to distinguish the differences between the various in-place asphalt recycling choices available (HIR, CIR, FDR) and pavement preservation strategies while learning how to implement an effective cost saving recycling program that stretches their agency's annual budget further. There is also a hands-on field component of this course that will give participants experience using the latest tools and software.

In-place recycling and pavement preservation programs save money on upkeep, and create opportunities for grant funding in certain areas. Owner agencies that are embracing in-place recycling and pavement recycling technology are saving millions across the nation and extending the service lives of their roads.

 

Intended Audience:

This class is intended for state and local agency roadway maintenance supervisors, construction and design engineers, contractors, consultants, and municipal engineers with responsibility for managing maintenance budgets, determining pavement repair or rehabilitation techniques, or implementing pavement maintenance programs. Manufacturers and suppliers of pavement materials will also find the course beneficial. It is also appropriate for those who are new to the subject as well as for experienced pavement managers wanting additional technical background or an update on the state-of-the-art practices regarding in-place asphalt recycling and soil stabilization techniques.

Past attendees have included consulting engineers, county engineers, city managers, state pavement design engineers, graduate students and academia persons to name a few.
