Asphalt Inspection BMP - Part 2: Placement
This instructor-led course, provided by MA LTAP, will introduce participants to asphalt pavement construction best practices, from the importance of project responsibilities to the most vital elements of laydown operations and compaction. Participants learn construction management responsibilities; recognize proper construction practices; identify construction issues and their sources; determine the impact of construction issues on performance; and select communication strategies for contractors, consultants, and superiors.
