Concrete Workshop

This workshop is based on the new 350-page book, Integrated Materials and Construction Practices for Concrete Pavement: A State-of-the Practice Manual. This manual is result of a multi- year, FHWA-sponsored effort.

The IMCP manual is a unique resource, designed to advance knowledge about concrete pavement beyond the fundamentals, focusing on the effects concrete materials have on construction practices and service life.

The workshop will help you:

  • Understand concrete pavement properties as several discrete elements that affect, and are affected by, each other.
  • Understand the technologies, tests, and best practices to identify materials, concrete properties, and construction practices that optimize concrete performance.
  • Understand that actions and decisions taken during each stage of a project effect other stages and how to anticipate those effects.
  • Avoid or reduce factors that lead to premature distress.
