Following the successful EUPAVE webinar held on 5 March 2026, comprehensive technical materials focusing on joint optimisation and non-destructive measurement technologies are now available for industry professionals. The session, which attracted approximately 70 participants from across the global concrete paving community, featured an in-depth exploration of the critical roles played by dowels and tie-bars in maintaining road longevity. These resources provide a unique opportunity for engineers and contractors to access expert insights into the latest innovations driving construction accuracy and structural resilience in modern concrete infrastructure.
The core of the available materials features a detailed presentation by Matthias Herold of MIT Mess- und Prüftechnik GmbH, who shared findings from an extensive analysis of over 10,000 dowel bar measurements. The data highlights frequent installation challenges, including lateral displacement and depth inaccuracies, while introducing a cutting-edge device designed to detect precise dowel positions before joints are cut. By accessing these webinar recordings and documents, professionals can learn how to implement these non-destructive technologies to minimize common faults and support the development of smoother, more durable concrete pavements.
