Pavement Condition Assessment Field Training (Reno)

This 4-hour, in-person training taught through a mix of outdoor demonstration and classroom instruction teaches agencies to manage roadway networks effectively and efficiently.
The cost is $40.

During this training, participants learn to identify common asphalt pavement distresses and how to rate the surface condition of asphalt pavements using the Pavement Surface Evaluation and Rating (PASER) methodology in the field. PASER uses a single value to represent overall pavement condition. The instructor will demonstrate the steps for conducting a visual inspection and how to apply PASER ratings based on observable conditions and distresses.
