Dr. Zollinger is a Research Engineer at the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) and a Professor of Civil Engineering at Texas A&M University, USA. He has over 30 years of experience in teaching and practicing Civil Engineering. He is the manager for the rigid pavements program at TTI, is the Past President of ISCP, and a Fellow of the American Concrete Institute (ACI). He has been the Manager of the Rigid Pavement Program for over 25 years—managing personnel over a variety of research projects at Texas A&M University and other institutions. He is very knowledgeable about concrete pavement design and construction, and is one of the world’s leading experts on continuously reinforced concrete pavements (CRCP). His major area of research includes concrete pavement performance, rehabilitation, behavior and design. He served as a consultant on the development of the 2002

AASHTO Guide (NCHRP Project 1-37a) and was a member of a group of experts that reviewed and provided input into the development the CP Roadmap. He has conducted research for Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) and other agencies for several years over a wide range of concrete pavement subjects in- cluding pavement repair and rehabilitation, transition design, joint seal performance and characterization, early-aged spalling and curing behavior—many of which involved the collection of data under field conditions.

Dr. Zollinger has taught a variety of subjects related to concrete materials. He has developed a variety of materials for workshops and training sessions for construction personnel and ‘how-to’ on the repair of concrete pavement spalls and other joint-related distress types. When he was in the US Army Reserve, he taught a professional development course for the US Army through the Com- mand and General Staff College using the experiential adult learning model. This tool was used to teach a variety of subjects important to those holding the rank of Major who had several years’ experience in command and battalion staff positions. He recently retired from the USAR at the rank of Lieutenant Colonel with 39 years of service.
