DAY 1 TUESDAY, APRIL 11 ASPHALT AND ASPHALT EMULSION BINDERS

Day One is intended to give the attendee a good understanding of asphalt and emulsions for use in a wide variety of applications. The source of asphalt, how it’s produced and the current market outlook will be dis-cussed. There are significant differences in asphalt and emulsion products and it is necessary to have a good understanding of these products to select the proper grade for a paving project. Modifying, processing and laboratory testing will be explained. This information will be referred back to over the next several days of this workshop.

DAY 4 FRIDAY, APRIL 14 ASPHALT PAVEMENT MAINTENANCE TECHNIQUES (CONT.)

Day Four covers Micro Surfacing and Slurry Seal techniques. Thin overlays have gained great acceptance due to significant improvements to designs and the use of new additives. The cost of asphalt and tight budgets has led to the wide use of thin overlays, this is a very useful mix for maintenance and rehabilitation of as-phalt roadways. After lunch is an overview of milling and profiling that may be applicable to most resurfacing technique and tack coats and the more robust underseals SAM’s (stress absorbing membranes) finally the last hour is reserved for Q & A.
