The Asphalt Institute is pleased to offer its Construction of Quality Hot Mix Asphalt Pavements one-day seminars at various locations in June 2007.

This one-day Asphalt Institute course will familiarize participants with the basic principles of hot mix asphalt pavement construction and the inspector responsibilities at various stages in the construction process. There will be emphasis on the general understanding of hot mix materials, production, placement, and compaction operations. Extra attention will be given to mix placement and compaction.

This workshop is designed for engineers, inspectors, technicians, and contractor personnel responsible for quality control of paving materials, mix design procedures, the inspection and operations of asphalt plants, and paving operations. Participation should include personnel from federal, state, county, and local agencies, airport authorities, paving contractors, consulting engineers, and testing laboratories.

The workshop is geared for the technician level and as a basic refresher course for the practicing engineer. Participants will receive the Asphalt Institute MS-22 Manual: Construction of Hot Mix Asphalt Pavements (a $60 value) and other course materials.
