Sign up for each program individually or all five at once for a discounted price. Part three of this five-part series will cover the following topics:

• Earthwork Construction Inspection
  
  A public works construction project is only as good as the foundation it was built on! Learn about the general characteristics of soil, how to recognize different soil types, what soil makes the best foundation for a particular project, and when to report soil conditions that are incompatible with design criteria.



• Street and Surface Improvements
  
  Hot mix asphalt concrete (HMAC) paving projects represent a major investment in resources. The public works construction inspector needs to understand the basics of the HMAC paving process. Learn about support conditions, ambient conditions, thickness, reinforcement and load transfer devices and other critical components of a successful project.
