NAPA is proud to announce that applications are now open for the new Balanced Mix Design Implementation Working Group. NAPA is partnering with the Federal Highway Administration to bring together asphalt professionals from all sectors of industry from across the country to develop frameworks, research needs, and tackle problems to help agencies and industry make informed decisions as they move forward with implementing balanced mix design.
While this group is being led by NAPA staff, it is critical that agencies and academia participate to ensure balanced conversations take place at the meetings. An official charter for the group and working group guidelines are posted on the working group webpage to provide more information on the makeup and scope of the group. It is our plan to try and hold a virtual meeting this Spring and then meet in person over the summer or early fall. FHWA will be helping provide travel support for agencies and academia who are members of the group.
While membership is limited, all who apply and do not make the membership list are encouraged to be friends and participate in the meetings.
Applications are due February 23, and members will be notified by early to mid-March.
For futher questions, please contact Richard Willis (rwillis@aphaltpavement.org) and Brett Williams (bwilliams@asphaltpavement.org).
