Asphalt

The Asphalt class teaches the proper method of operating an asphalt paver and the use of a variety of screed automation used in grades and slopes. This class provides a working knowledge of the hot-mix asphalt-paving industry through the hands-on operation of equipment. Students will learn the proper techniques on how to do the job completely and safely. Sand is used in the paving process to simulate asphalt; the sand can be picked up with a wheel loader and reused.
