The Institute of Cement and Concrete of Chile (ICH) and ISCP held a one-day seminar on Monday, May 25, 2015 at the Hotel Neruda in Providencia, Santiago, Chile. The goal of the seminar was to provide a comprehensive look at the issues concerning construction practices for new and existing concrete pavements—with emphasis on the most critical issues during conservation and rehabilitation. It addressed the various issues concerning global trends, as well as the approach to their practical, local applications. The principal speaker was Robert Rodden, ISCP Executive Director.
There were 90 people who attended the one-day seminar. The attendees were government officials of Ministries, those who were a part of the Commission on Concrete Pavements of ICH, contractors, inspectors, consultants, and general practitioners in the fields of construction and paving projects of the local Chilean urban and interurban levels. There was a remarkable turnout from both the public and private sectors. In addition to the successful attendance number, the program content of the workshop was highly valued, while a highlight was the launch of the Spanish translation of the document “Guide To Concrete Overlays”.
