This technique\, known as conversion\, relies on principals similar to the design of new Perpetual Pavements but with some important distinctions. Both traditional and conversion Perpetual Pavement designs concepts will be presented\, with emphasis on the development of the design criteria\, application of the criteria to pavement conversion\, and existing design tools such as PerRoad and PAVEXpress to execute design. Real world case studies will also be presented. \nParticipants will:\n1. Learn the fundamental concepts needed to convert an existing pavement into a Perpetual Pavement.\n2. Understand how PerRoad and PAVEXpress can be used to facilitate Perpetual Pavement design by conversion\n3. See real-world examples of converted Perpetual Pavements.

This webinar will highlight University of Minnesota research investigating the capabilities of graphite nanoplatelet (GNP)-taconite modified asphalt materials in damage detection and healing. \nThe presentation will feature two research components: \n–The application of GNP-taconite modified asphalt materials for damage detection using electrical conductivity. Findings show that\, as compared to conventional asphalt materials\, the modified materials exhibit an improved electrical conductivity due to the electron hopping mechanism. \n–The damage-healing capability of GNP-taconite modified asphalt materials upon microwave heating. Research shows that the modified materials can effectively absorb the heat generated by the microwave\, and the rising temperature can effectively heal the microcracks in the binder. \nThis webinar will be held in conjunction with a meeting of the CTS Transportation Infrastructure Research Council.

Participants will learn that\, in some cases\, using less material can improve the level of service. Various anti-icing and deicing chemicals will be discussed\, focusing on how they work\, application rates\, costs\, and storage issues. Participants will also learn how anti-icing and prewetting can reduce the amount of salt used while improving the level of service. Using this training can help you reduce environmental impacts of road maintenance while maintaining safety. \nTopics Covered\n• Quantifiable performance measures\n• Minimizing environmental impacts/sustainability\n• How deicers work\n• Technology and innovation \nThis CTAP training includes a portion of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency snow and ice control training. A voluntary test and certificate are offered and administered by MPCA. The CTAP and LTAP programs are not responsible for the MPCA certificate program.
