ISAP 2002 Conference in Copenhagen

The Conference

Organised under the auspices of ISAP, the Conference is the ninth in the series known as the "Ann Arbor Conferences". Begun in 1962 at the University of Michigan in the City of Ann Arbor, conferences have been held alternatively there, in Europe (London, Delft and Nottingham) and in Seattle (USA) at five-yearly intervals. These conferences have presented the latest developments in the mechanistic approach to flexible pavement design and rehabilitation, with the emphasis on high quality research and its implementation in practice. The 2002 Conference will cover a broad field of topics to encourage cross-fertilisation of ideas between design and materials engineers, teachers, lecturers, students, researchers, suppliers and road construction contractors.

 

Scope

The Conference will embrace research and practice with respect to design, construction and performance of thin pavements and thin layer technology. The 2002 Conference will provide fora for discussions about producing better performing and more cost-efficient thin pavements. In addition, the 2002 Conference will address the environmental aspects of design, construction and maintenance of flexible road pavements. The technical programme will last four days and will build on the strong traditions of previous conferences. Plenary sessions, parallel paper and workshop sessions, as well as poster sessions, will enable all participants to become involved and benefit from the Conference.

Organization

The ISAP Executive Committee is responsible for the overall management and organisation of the Conference, with the technical aspects managed under the direction of the Technical Advisory Group.
