TRB conducted a webinar on April 8, 2015, from 11:00am to 12:30pm ET that covered select findings of current or recently completed research on rigid pavement preservation. Webinar presenters discussed savings from preservation, shotblasting, grinding, and grooving in Oklahoma, as well as describe permeable concrete maintenance issues studied in Canada. Webinar presenters also provided a brief overview of a pooled fund study looking at preservation of rigid pavements from the Long Term Pavement Performance SPS-2 study.
This webinar was organized by the TRB Standing Committee on Pavement Preservation.
