Project Description
The Theory to Practice: Concrete Pavements training programme was developed in collaboration with AECOM and National Highways to provide industry professionals with a comprehensive understanding of concrete pavements. The course bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, ensuring participants can effectively apply key principles in concrete design, construction, maintenance, and compliance.
Delivered over two days, the training includes both structured classroom learning and hands-on laboratory work, offering a holistic learning experience for engineers, contractors, and asset managers involved in highway infrastructure projects.
