SUMMARY:Hot Mix Asphalt Acceptance Based on Percent Within Limits webinar
DESCRIPTION:Construction acceptance plans can reward or penalize contractors based upon the quality of their work. For asphalt pavement construction work\, the goal of the acceptance plan is to encourage contractors to focus on materials and construction factors that help achieve better performance and longer life. For hot-mix asphalt (HMA) paving\, there are three primary factors that affect performance: \n\nGradation of the aggregate.\nAsphalt binder content.\nCompacted density.\n\nIn 2016\, under the sponsorship of the Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT)\, researchers at the University of Nevada Reno’s Western Regional Superpave Center developed a tool to use as an alternative to the conventional mix acceptance procedure in the state’s Standard. The new methodology applies a statistical-based\, percent within limits (PWL) approach to determine if the as-constructed mix properties fall within acceptable limits and if the contractor is eligible for a bonus or incurs a penalty. (Note that the assessment is made on a lot-by-lot basis). Read NDOT Research Report No. 206-10-803\, “Develop a PWL System for Dense Graded Hot Mix Asphalt Construction\, Including Pay Factors” (Jan 2015) to learn more about the tool. \nDuring this 2-hour webinar\, learn more about the tool and how it can be applied at your agency. \nThe participants who will benefit the most from the webinar include engineers involved with preparing pavement construction specifications\, overseeing pavement construction\, and determining final contractor payment. Participants will receive a digital version of the NDOT report and the mix acceptance tool. \nClick here for further information.

SUMMARY:National Asphalt Pavement Association webinar: Supporting Construction Workers – Suicide Prevention\, Mental Health\, & Substance Use Awareness
DESCRIPTION:The construction industry has one of the highest suicide and opioid overdose rates compared to all industries. The reasons are complicated. This webinar\, co-sponsored by CPWR and NAPA\, spotlights the impact that suicides\, mental health disorders\, and substance use have on the trades\, and will share resources and examples of what stakeholders can do to support workers and keep them safe in a dynamic environment. Learn firsthand from experts with personal experiences and innovative programs that reach and support thousands of workers as they navigate through these complex issues. \nPartnering with CPWR and moderated by NAPA Chairperson Jay Winford\, this free webinar focuses on what stakeholders can do to support construction workers and keep them safe in an industry (general construction) that has one of the highest suicide and opioid overdose rates across all industries. Registration is required for this free webinar. Business leaders\, HR personnel\, and those with front-line responsibilities are encouraged to support this effort.

SUMMARY:National Asphalt Pavement Association webinar: Beyond the Basics: Milling for Quality
DESCRIPTION:Milling is the removal of often distressed asphalt mixtures from a pavement structure. While some just see milling as the process of generating reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) which can be used in future projects\, milling can also positively or negatively impact the quality of rehabilitation efforts. \nThe participants will: \n\nLearn the different types of cutting drums\nUnderstand how different cutting drums impact RAP and the quality of the milled surface\nIdentify milling best practices for ensure the paving crew has the best chance of placing and compacting a dense\, smooth surface
