The Cement Association of Canada (CAC) is hosting a cross-Canada seminar series highlighting the newly published ACI 330.2R-17 guideline “Guide for the Design and Construction of Concrete Site Paving for Industrial & Trucking Facilities”.
This next Workshop will be held Tuesday, September 19th from 8:30 AM – 4:00 PM ADT
at the Four Points by Sheraton Halifax, 1496 Hollis Street, Halifax, Nova Scotia, B3J 3Z1, Canada
The first workshop took place on May 25 in Toronto, and the second was held June 27 in Vancouver.
Hosts in partnership are the local ready-mix concrete association, each province’s American Concrete Institute (ACI) chapter, and the American Concrete Pavement Association (ACPA). These workshops are also sponsored nationally by BASF, Euclid, Forta, Multiquip, PNA, Somero, as well as local sponsors in each location.
This across-Canada seminar series will be a great chance to learn about opportunities in industrial pavements. Attendees will learn how to design and construct these facilities using the ACI 330.2R-17 “Guide for the Design and Construction of Concrete Site Paving for Industrial & Trucking Facilities”. Owners, developers, consultants, contractors and others in the concrete industry will have the opportunity to network with leaders in this field and learn about how this technology can give concrete pavers a competitive advantage.
Industrial & Trucking Facilities require a strong, durable pavement that can stand up to the heavy and specialized loading. Industrial pavements require special attention with respect to design and construction, as these projects are typically quite large and will be exposed to industrial-type vehicles as well as over-the-road trucks.
Learning Objectives:
• Optimized Designs for Industrial Concrete Pavements – using ACI 330.2R-17, StreetPave & OptiPave
• Geotechnical Considerations for Industrial Concrete Pavements, including strategies for freeze/thaw climates
• Mixture Proportioning to ensure a strong, durable pavement, including strategies for freeze/thaw climates
• Mixture Proportioning using fibres and new design methodologies, to optimize pavement thickness and minimize curling
• Construction Methods and Details, including different types of equipment that can be used to pave these facilities
