Asphalt Institute offers certified asphalt mix designer course

The Asphalt Institute Mix Design Technology Certification (MDT) course provides advanced technicians, designers, and engineers responsible for mix designs with a thorough understanding of the properties of the materials which compose asphalt mixtures, as well as the physical and mathematical processes involved in producing a successful asphalt mixture design.

This course is complemented by the Asphalt Institute’s Basic Mixture Technician Training (BMTT) course. While the MDT course focuses on how advanced technicians, designers, and/or engineers use laboratory and project information in the mix design process to create long-lasting asphalt mixtures, the BMTT course focuses on the actual tests and laboratory processes involved in asphalt mix design performed by technicians.

This 3.5-day course is $1,195 per student and includes lunches, refreshments, a copy of “MS-2 Asphalt Mix Design Methods” and optional certification testing. The course will be conducted October 16-19, 2018 at the Wirtgen Group Training Center in Antioch, Tenn.
