The goal of this one-day workshop is to provide a basic understanding of materials, production, placement and compaction operation that combine to produce a quality asphalt pavement. The workshop agenda is as follows:
• Introduction
• What is Quality?
• How is it achieved? Specifications
• Pre-construction Recommendations
• Mixture Designs
• Asphalt Production Facility
• Surface Preparation
• Materials Transfer
• Paving Operations
• Compaction
• QC/QA Testing
• Troubleshooting mat defects
Takeaways:
– An understanding of quality
– An overview of construction of an asphalt pavement
– An understanding of the importance of quality control
Comments from attendees:
- I learned more in this one day workshop than I have in one week workshop or in one semester.
- Very informative. I gained appreciation of the right methods to a quality asphalt pavement.
- Good introduction for those without background in HMA.
- Jarrett helped me see a better picture of the standard practice of paving from start to finish.
- Proper compaction is important for A.C. pavement.

In this workshop, you are the inspector at paving project site. The attendees will be split into small groups to discuss what they see in a short (1-2 minutes) video of various paving situations. The audience will gather and one of the groups will lead the discussion of what they saw. The group discussion will be followed by a presentation on the topic.
If time permits, additional videos will be discussed in a group setting.
What did attendees have to say about “being the inspector”:
– Looping videos were great learning tools.
– It helped make us aware of job inspections and situations.
– You can talk more being in a small group.
– Good format, good interaction, good for learning.
– Good to learn from people with various backgrounds and levels of expertise.
