Additionally, Dr. Susan Tighe, director of the Centre for Pavement and Transportation Technology (CPATT) at the University of Waterloo, will provide results from CPATT\u2019s testing of RAP and how this may influence road owners. According to recent research, RAP and WMA can stand up to heavy traffic and makes environmental sense.<br \/>\nOther seminar highlights include a presentation from MTO\u2019s manager of materials engineering and research Becca Lane. She will give a live demonstration of iCorridor, which is a web site for data visualization and information sharing on core planning and transportation data. And, MTO senior bituminous engineer Seyed Tabib and Fowler Construction divisional manager Tim Fawcett will present on how 58,000 tonnes of WMA was successfully used in Whitney, Ontario.<br \/>\n\u201cThere\u2019s good reason why OHMPA\u2019s Fall Asphalt Seminar is North America\u2019s largest, one-day-only asphalt seminar,\u201d said OHMPA executive director Doug Duke. \u201cIn one day, the seminar brings together the province\u2019s asphalt producers, key industry stakeholders and internationally renowned industry experts. That lends itself to a fantastic opportunity for attendees to network and to learn a great deal of industry knowledge.\u201d<br \/>\nWhy else should asphalt producers, contractors, road owners, consulting engineers, developers, researchers and academia attend? \u201cIt\u2019s a fast-paced industry, changes happen quickly,\u201d says OHMPA technical director Sandy Brown. \u201cThose who attend the Fall Asphalt Seminar will be given the information they need keep a step ahead.\u201d<br \/>\nYou can register for the seminar at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ohmpa.org\">www.ohmpa.org.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ontario Construction Report staff writer The Ontario Hot Mix Producers Association (OHMPA) has announced the speaker line up for its 2013 fall asphalt seminar.
