HMA Pavement Smoothness Specifications Webinar - May 26, 2020
Back by popular demand and now in a convenient, on-line platform, CalAPA is pleased to present a special class on Hot Mix Asphalt pavement smoothness specifications, with a special empasis on the new Caltrans pavement smoothness specifications. The class offers a brief introduction into how pavement smoothness is measured, followed by a detailed look at the current specifications with a focus on obligations, risks, and opportunities for both parties. While the 2019 Caltrans smoothness specifications are significantly improved compared to previous versions, they remain complex and it is vitally important to understand what is required and how the information is used to evaluate acceptance and payment.
Instructor Mike Robinson (pictured), a paving consultant who formerly worked for Caltrans and private industry, will bring his 
engaging style and real-world examples to this lively class. This seminar is an outgrowth of the highly popular presentations he gave at CalAPA Asphalt Pavement Conferences. This class complements Mike Robinson's paving best-practices class.
