http://www.cp2info.org/center CALIFORNIA PAVEMENT PRESERVATION CENTER – CP2 CENTER Caltrans established the California Pavement Preservation Center at CSU, Chico on July 1, 2006 Purpose is accommodating the needs for pavement preservation services to governmental agencies and the industry sector
13
MISSION STATEMENT OF CP2 CENTER To serve as a leader in a partnered effort between government, industry and academia participants to advance and improve pavement preservation practices through education, innovation, applied and practical research, technology transfer, and implementation.
14
CP2 CENTER OBJECTIVES Serve as a technical resource for pavement preservation activities within the state of California. Educate others about the benefits of pavement preservation in partnership with the Caltrans and industry. This would involve educational programs at the university as well as distant learning opportunities. Enhance pavement preservation knowledge through research and training. Advise and assist others to establish a pavement preservation program.
15
CIWMB PROJECT OBJECTIVES Assist in the creation and expansion of sustainable markets of RAC and CE applications of waste tires through education Teach civil engineering professionals and students to use RAC and apply waste tire in other Civil Engineering projects
16
PROJECT SCOPE Continuing education of engineers and technicians in using waste tires in RAC and other CE applications through developing and delivering short courses. Curricular development of using RAC and other CE applications of waste tires for California Universities and Community Colleges that offer CE curricula
