HIPERPAV Workshop
Return to top of page
Course Length: 1 day
This workshop addresses the basic theory and concepts of concrete pavement early age behavior and its relation to long-term performance. The concept of stress and strength development of concrete due to environmental and construction factors is analyzed using the HIPERPAV computer model software. Participants of the workshop will become familiar with using the software to improve the longevity and performance of concrete pavements.

LIFE-CYCLE COST ANALYSIS IN PAVEMENT DESIGN
Return to top of page
Course Length: 1.5 days
Description: This free training course provides basic instruction in the FHWA Life-cycle cost analysis methodology including the determination of agency and user costs and an introduction to the probabilistic approach.
To schedule, phone:
- Michael Smith, Materials Engineer, (404) 562-3694

DP-115 is designed for individuals with responsibility for conducting, evaluating and using pavement design LCCA results. This includes State pavement design engineers, pavement management engineers, as well as district or area supervisors with responsibility for selecting pavement type and rehabilitation strategies. The understanding the material covered in this workshop will become a prerequisite for the Advanced Workshop in the use of the FHWA Probabilistic LCCA model now under development.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE/PAVEMENT PRESERVATION: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Return to top of page
Course Length: 45 minutes
An executive summary, geared toward mid- to upper-level managers in Transportation Agencies who are thinking about implementing a PPM program, which provides an introduction to preventive maintenance programs and how they contribute to pavement preservation. The summary makes the case for the use of preventive maintenance in an overall pavement preservation program.
