ACI 330 R-08 – The Gold Standard of Concrete Parking Lot Design
Presented by Amy Miller, NRMCA (bio) (email)
$85 per single location for any number of participants.
May 27, 2010 Begins at 1:00 p.m. EST | 1 hour duration Register Online

When designing, constructing or proposing a concrete parking lot, there is just one standard that should be followed: ACI 330R-08 – "Guide for the Design and Construction of Concrete Parking Lots." The webinar discusses the basis of the design guide, gives an overview of the sections of the guide and most importantly compares and reviews other commonly used design procedures to that of ACI 330 R-08. Upon participating, an attendee should feel confident that the best option for designing, constructing and testing of a concrete parking lot is encompassed within ACI 330R-08. Single copies of both ACI 330R-08 ("Guide for Design and Construction of Concrete Parking Lots") and ACI 330.1-03 ("Specification for Unreinforced Concrete Parking Lots") will be provided free for each paid Webinar.

Part two: June 28, 2010, 10:00 am EST │ 1-hour duration
This two-part Webinar provides an overview on implementing pervious concrete pavements as a solution to reducing stormwater runoff from building sites and other paved areas. Participants will learn about pervious concrete pavement systems, engineering properties and construction techniques. Part 1 discusses hydrologic and structural design of pervious concrete pavements. Part 2 addresses the specifics that every specifier should consider when drafting pervious concrete specifications, with a focus on American Concrete Institute (ACI) Committee 522 Guide to Specification for Pervious Concrete. This Webinar will help civil engineers, architects, landscape architects and public works officials understand the principles behind pervious concrete design. Contractors, product suppliers and land developers will also benefit from this Webinar.

The Quantifiable Advantages of Concrete Parking Lots
Presented by: Phil Kresge (bio)(email)
Pricing: $65 per single location for any number of participants.

In this Webinar, NRMCA's Concrete Pavement Analyst (CPA) software is used to demonstrate the impact of choices made regarding common options and scenarios for parking lot projects. The software makes concrete and asphalt comparisons easy by producing reports based on the input of price, material parameters, design and other variables specific to a project. With the assistance of the software tool, reflecting best recommended design practices, the Webinar explains short and long-term implications of the decision to use either asphalt or concrete. A free copy of the CPA software is provided to all Webinar participants.
Program elements include:
- In-depth explanation of the differences between concrete and asphalt parking areas, including design, construction and maintenance requirements.
- Step-by-step instruction of how to use CPA to produce detailed life-cycle cost comparisons of concrete and equivalent asphalt pavement designs.
- Local customizing tips for the software.
