The National Center for Asphalt Technology (NCAT) hosted 31 UAPA members for the first-ever UAPA trip to NCAT. The trip educated and informed all who attended on the latest research and trends in the industry. Attendees were able to tour the NCAT laboratories, take a walking tour of the Lee Road preservation sections and NCAT pavement test track, and hear presentations on balanced mix designs, high-performance thin overlays, and highly polymer modified (HiMA) track research from some of the top professionals in the industry. In between the presentations and tours, attendees were able to have a little fun golfing at the Grand National Golf Course and attending the state championship high school football game at Jordan-Hare Stadium, along with sampling some yummy local food and enjoying dinners with the NCAT staff. Overall, the trip was a tremendous success as each attendee was able to take advantage of the unique opportunity to engage and ask questions of NCAT staff and each other. New friendships were formed, speed records were broken on the test track for a 15-passenger van, and everyone had a great time and came away better for it. Call us today.
