The choice of track slab approach for light rail can significantly affect the commercial and program performance of a project given the complexities of construction in an urban environment.

SPEAKERS:
Kevin Abrams
will present the welcome, introduction, announcements, and Forum wind-up.
Tim Buckingham-Jones
will outline various approaches to light rail track slab design including plain concrete, steel-reinforced concrete, and macro-synthetic fiber concrete options.
Anna-Carin Brink will present a South African case study to compare a continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) and a plain concrete pavement (PCP) in terms of typical defects encountered; the methodology followed to conduct repairs; and the respective areas repaired in each, some 20 and 12 years after construction.
Justin Moss will present on two “Asset Handover” projects—Australia’s concrete pavements placed from 1975 forward that have reached or exceeded their intended design lives, or have been bypassed by upgraded highway structure. He will cover analysis of consumed life, typical changed traffic loadings, corridor usage constraints, rehabilitation treatment options, cost estimates, and determination of modeling of resultant performance.

Continuing Professional Development (PDHs) – Attendance at this event may be eligible for credit towards Engineers Australia and other organizations’ Continuing Professional Development Hours requirements (PDHs).
