Introduction
Pavement rehabilitation is defined as a structural or functional enhancement of a pavement which produces a substantial extension in service life, by substantially improving pavement condition and ride quality. Pavement maintenance activities, on the other hand, are those treatments that preserve pavements condition, safety, and ride quality and therefore aid a pavement in achieving its design life. Pavement engineers need to have a fundamental understanding of pavement design and be able to adjust designs to include constraints such as curbs and gutters, utilities, private and commercial entrances while also considering roadway needs. The participants will have a broad knowledge about pavement design and rehabilitation treatments for flexible, rigid, roller-compacted concrete and composite pavement structures. This workshop outlines the pavement design of roads. All three accepted methods of pavement design are covered, including Soil Factor, R-value thickness, and an introduction to MnPAVE for thickness design. design guide will be used to review the importance of and tools for the following elements of roadway design: data collection and accurate traffic projections; subgrade soil evaluation and best practices for enhancements; pavement section materials and specifications; and best construction practices and their effect on pavement life.
Objectives
- Define pavement rehabilitation and types of pavement
- Illustrate the guidelines for project-level data collection that includes roadway section definition, pavement section inventory, traffic analysis, distress survey, non-destructive deflection testing and etc.
- Discuss the different types of project-level pavement evaluation such as distress evaluation, structural evaluation, functional evaluation, drainage evaluation and identify uniform sections
- Differentiate between guidelines for selection of rehabilitation techniques and guidelines for the formation of rehabilitation strategies
- Interpret the guidelines for life-cycle cost analysis of pavement rehabilitation strategies
- Review soil factor and R-value thickness design
- Introduction to MnPAVE for thickness design (including practical exercises)
- Review subgrade soil evaluation and best construction practices
- Overview subgrade soil enhancement practices in Minnesota
- Review pavement section materials and best construction practices
Upon successful completion of this course, the delegates will be able to:
Training Methodology
This is an interactive course. There will be open question and answer sessions, regular group exercises and activities, videos, case studies, and presentations on best practice. Participants will have the opportunity to share with the facilitator and other participants on what works well and not so well for them, as well as work on issues from their own organizations. The online course is conducted online using MS-Teams/ClickMeeting.
Who Should Attend?
This course is intended for pavement engineers, design engineers, engineering consultants, contractor superintendents, civil technicians and technologists, construction inspectors, and all individuals involved in transportation and pavement.
