Road Pavement Rehabilitation 2 days. Local and International
This course is intended and will provide practical guidelines for those involved in the pavement rehabilitation of surfaced roads. It is not intended as a manual on routine road maintenance but for larger rehabilitation projects requiring more sophisticated inputs and design considerations. Construction would also be on a larger scale, most often requiring the use of specialist contractors. Un-surfaced or gravel roads are not covered in these notes as they require special but more routine maintenance work than a surfaced road.
