SUMMARY:NAPA Webinar: Accelerated Asphalt Road Construction for Engineers and Owners
DESCRIPTION:Asphalt pavements are quick to construct\, but this traditional wisdom has rarely been quantified — until recently. Using a case study\, learn how researchers quantify speed of construction with user costs and local business impacts and learn also from a contractor on how asphalt’s speed of construction was a winning component to their bid. Agencies can gain a more holistic view of the total economic impact of a construction project. This analysis helps the agency make an informed decision surrounding the economic and construction costs associated with large pavement projects.

SUMMARY:National Institute for Transportation and Communities Webinar: Land Use and Transportation Policies for a Sustainable Future
DESCRIPTION:Liming Wang of PSU presents on AV technology’s impacts on travel\, land use and sustainability. \nEven though there are tremendous uncertainties in the timing and evolution path of the Autonomous Vehicles (AV) technology\, it may become a likely reality within most MPOs’ long-range regional transportation plan horizon of twenty years. Yet a recent survey of the largest MPOs in the US indicates only one of them “even mentions driverless\, automated\, or autonomous vehicles in its most recent RTP”. One of the uncertainties in assessing the impacts of AV is their direction: on one hand\, self-driving cars could increase VMT by increasing roadway capacity\, lowering costs of travel; on the other\, they may reduce VMT by enabling more car-sharing\, improving access to transit\, eliminating the fixed costs of car ownership\, and reclaiming parking space. To date\, there is no suitable conceptual framework or modeling tools available to MPOs for quantitatively assessing the likely long-term effects of AV or potential policy scenarios. \nThis project studies the possible impacts on travel and land use of the emerging AV technology and focuses on advancing this innovative mobility option by making sure it serves the greater good of building sustainable and equitable communities in its adoption. It also contributes to smart cities research by examining the likely social\, economic\, and environmental outcomes of integrating AV in our cities and by starting to consider policies and plans to preempt their potential adverse impacts and to ensure that the AV technology improves access for all people.

SUMMARY:Practical Math Workshop – Part 1
DESCRIPTION:Register now for Nevada LTAP’s free online training for Practical Math: Using Common Math Skills to Solve Everyday Problems on the Job. This two-part workshop is being held on December 15th and 17th (8:00–10:30 am PT both days)\, and builds on basic math skills to solve common on the job problems. \nThis workshop is for anyone who needs to solve common on the job problems—using the math you already know! Whether you love it\, hate it\, or are ambivalent about math—the simple things you already can do will help you to produce units of measure like the volume of a cylinder\, the square footage of an area; flatten a slope\, or ascertain whether you have enough supplies or equipment on hand to finish a job\, and more. \nThis course builds on basic math skills that you learned in earlier web-based training or proved mastery of by passing the opt-out exam. Then by using a step by step approach\, complex problems you encounter at work will be broken down into manageable problems. You will identify what you need to know\, what you already know\, and how to proceed. You will be encouraged to ask questions\, work through some problems\, and build your confidence in what you can do. \nAt the end of this workshop\, you will be able to: \n\nPerform calculations by using the proper order of math processes.\nIdentify the best solution path for job-related word problems.\nConvert a problem into a mathematical equation.\nCalculate formulas to solve typical job-related math problems.
