Integrated Materials and Construction Practices for Concrete Pavements (IMCP) Workshop

As part of the National Traning for Integrating Materials and Construction Practices in Concrete Pavements: A State-of-the-Practice Manual project, several workshops are being held around the country with the goal to provide training and materials that will help participants understand the integrated nature of concrete pavement materials and construction practices and apply that understanding to the design and construction of concrete pavements. A second goal is to introduce participants to the content of the IMCP Manual so they can effectively use it as a resource and reference.

Six regional workshops were held in 2007. More workshops are scheduled for 2008. The videos below are from the workshop hosted by the Iowa Department of Transportation, Ames, Iowa, on April 4-5, 2007.
