  2. Project Letting Trends 2014 Projections *

  3. ProgramDistribution

  4. Average Number of Bidders * thru January 23, 2014

  5. Design Build Contracts (by Year) Updated 01/23/14

  6. Materials Usage Trends 2013 data as of 01/24/2014

  7. 2013 Construction Program

  8. Focus Areas: Quality – Trends & Targets

  9. Focus Areas: Quality – Trends & Targets Meets Specifications Standard Lot Spec Limit (n=1) = 90-96 % % of Individual Cores Meeting Spec Limit: CY 2012 = 97.4% CY 2013 = 99.9%

  10. Focus Areas: Quality – Trends & Targets Meets Specifications RPS Lot Spec Limit (n=1) = 92-96 % % of Individual Cores Meeting Spec Limit: CY 2012 = 92.9% CY 2013 = 94.7%

  11. Focus Areas: Quality - PWL Laboratory Testing Section (LTS) & Local Acceptance (LA)

  12. Focus Areas: HMA vs. WMA Standard Const. Individual Core Density Meets Specifications Wearing Course Density Data from CAMMS.

  13. Focus Areas: HMA vs. WMA RPS Const. Individual Core Density Meets Specifications Wearing Course Density Data from CAMMS.

  14. Focus Areas: Green Initiatives - WMA WMA Usage (% of Total Asphalt Tonnage) Data from ECMS Sections 309, 316, 409, 410, 9311 & 9411 Const. Items

  15. Focus Areas: Green Initiatives - RAP RAP Usage Trend in HMA % of CAMMS Sample Increments Tested by MTD

  16. Focus Areas: Green Initiatives - RAP Data Source = Annual District Survey

  17. Focus Areas: Longitudinal Joints *Contractor collected data to prepare for 2011 joint density specification

  18. 2013 Longitudinal Joint Density Projects Incentive/Disincentive Summary • 67 Projects with Specification • 168 Total Lots (835 cores) • Raising min. spec. limit to ≥ 90% density for 2014 construction (Pub. 408 2011/Change 5)

  19. Focus Areas: Marcellus Shale - Posted Miles

  20. Marcellus Shale – Linear Bonded Miles

  21. Miles of Minor Marcellus Damage

  22. Miles of Significant Marcellus Damage

  23. Initiatives: Warranties • Warranties: Improving Quality • 5-Year Warranty for resurfacing overlays • Pending • 7-Year Warranty for major rehabilitation • Developing Specification and Use Guidelines for Clearance Transmittal - ongoing • What do we want to get from warranties? • Enhanced pavement quality • Increased Contractor accountability for product • Lower costs by reducing testing, supervision, and staff • Lower life-cycle and maintenance costs by improving performance • Protection against early failures

  24. Pennsylvania Asphalt Pavement Association 53rd Annual Asphalt Paving Conference We Look Forward to Working with PAPA in 2014! Thank You!
