Pavement Management Systems On-Demand Webinar

Topic Description:

Asset management is key in keeping operations running smoothly. It is important to look at pavements the same way. Once a paving project is complete there are stages at which maintenance needs to take place in order to keep the pavement in operation. During this webinar you will learn about pavement management systems, how to implement a pavement preservation program, and treatments available to ensure long lasting pavement.

Learning Objectives:

  • What is a Pavement Management System
  • What tools are available to rate pavements
  • Implementing a pavement preservation program
  • Discuss Life-Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA)
  • Best approaches to maintaining pavement

Presenter:

  • Adriana Vargas-Nordcbeck, Ph.D., National Center for Asphalt Technology (NCAT)

PLEASE NOTE:

The ASPHALT CALCULATOR is a quick and easy tool to help you estimate how many tons of asphalt pavement your project will need. Just enter your project’s width (feet), length (feet), and planned nominal compacted thickness (inches), then click “CALCULATE.”

The calculator uses a mix density of 1.950 tons per cubic yard to estimate the total asphalt tonnage required.
