Recently, NRMCA’s Amanda Hult presented on the new ACI 330.2R-17 Guide for the Design and Construction of Concrete Site Paving for Industrial and Trucking Facilities to the Kentucky Society of Professional Engineers at its annual convention in Owensboro, KY. Her presentation walked the engineers through the design procedures for over-the-road trucks as well as the specialty equipment that may be on the pavement. The attendees were also exposed to ACI 330R-08 Guide for the Design and Construction of Concrete Parking Lots. Many in the audience have never used ACI to design their parking lots, Hult said.
“I am still using AASHTO to design parking lots. I really need to step up my game and start using the appropriate documents for my projects,“ said one engineer to Hult.
