The Asphalt Lab Technician course equips you with the essential knowledge and practical skills to excel in ensuring the quality and compliance of asphalt materials in real-world projects. This comprehensive 5-module course covers critical safety practices, including the proper use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and emergency response procedures for hazards like chemical spills and harmful fumes. You’ll become proficient in sampling and reducing aggregate samples, conducting sieve analyses, and testing aggregates’ specific gravity and moisture content to meet mix design requirements. Additionally, the course delves into the principles of asphalt mix design, teaching you how to calculate volumetric properties such as air voids (Va), voids in mineral aggregate (VMA), and voids filled with asphalt (VFA). You’ll learn to optimize binder content and specific gravity (Gmm) to ensure the durability and performance of asphalt mixtures. Through hands-on training, you’ll master the use of key lab tools and equipment, ensuring accuracy and reliability in lab results. By the end of the course, you’ll be adept at evaluating asphalt mixtures through compaction and quality testing procedures, ensuring they meet industry standards for strength, durability, and safety.
