The Centre for Pavement Engineering Education (CPEE)
Two-Day Concrete Pavement Design and Construction Course
Tuesday, October 15 (beginning at 8:30am) through Wednesday, October 16, 2019
AUSTROADS   |   Level 9   |   287 Elizabeth Street   |   Sydney, Australia

This two day short course provides valuable knowledge and is ideal for those in the field of concrete road pavements:

• State road agency and local government engineers and managers with responsibilities in the provision, approval, design, construction or maintenance of concrete roads & pavements. This to also include project managers and senior supervisors.
• Consulting engineers with involvement in road and/or pavement projects.
• Road & Pavement construction contractors, engineers, project managers and supervisors.
• Local Government engineers, project managers and senior supervisors.
• Technical operatives and Engineering graduates and “cadets” looking for specialist knowledge for career development
• Those involved in the design and construction of roads and pavements where heavier traffic and loads may be encountered

OVERVIEW: Supported by Austroads, RoadsAustralia, IPWEA, AustStab, ASCP, Quality System, and CPD, this course is intended to inform on the principles & practices involved in concrete pavement design, the course program will closely follow the content in the appropriate Chapters of the Austroads “Guide to Pavement Technology – Part 2: Pavement Structural Design” and “Part 4C: Materials for the Concrete Pavements”, which are used as the principal references.

The materials content will cover more information than is in the current Guide, as the selection of materials is critical to producing a road/pavement design that will deliver both structural and functional performance. Appropriate joint types and their design are key elements and will be discussed in detail. The important construction aspects will also be elaborated on.
