The Asphalt Pavement Association of WV is happy to announce the availability of a 2024 Asphalt Mix Design Course.
During the week of March 11th the Asphalt Pavement Association of West Virginia is offering an asphalt mix design class to cover both Marshall and SuperPave Mix Design methods. The course is designed around the WVDOH specifications, materials procedures, and AASHTO/ASTM methods. Through the course students will gain a working knowledge of the principles associated with asphalt concrete volumetric mix design for both design methodologies. In addition, on Friday March 15th, the final day of the course, students will have the opportunity to take the WVDOH approved examination to obtain their Asphalt Mix Design Certification.
This course will be held at the WVDOH Materials Control, Soils, and Testing Division office (190 Dry Branch Drive. Charleston, WV) and will begin Monday, March 11, 2024 at 8:00 A.M. and conclude on Friday, March 15, 2024 at Noon.

Deanna, or Dee to her friends, has been a member of Mountaineer Contractor’s team for over 8 years. During her time, Dee has been primarily responsible for the day to day traffic control operations of their various paving projects. Dee did not come into the construction industry through traditional means. In her past life, while working as a bartender and cook, she had a regular customer that worked construction. While discussing a career that provided the benefits and retirement she was looking for, he recommended Dee join her local Labor Union.
“And the rest is history as they say. There is no time like the present to try a new career path in the construction industry. Whether you are attending college, vocational school or looking for a change in your current career, there is plenty of room for growth and opportunity in construction,” Dee said.
