Guide to Cement-Based Integrated Pavement Solutions, August 2011

This guide provides a clear, concise, and cohesive presentation of cement-bound materials options for 10 specific engineering pavement applications: new concrete pavements, concrete overlays, previous concrete, precast pavements, roller-compacted concrete, cement-treated base, full-depth reclamation with cement, cement-modified soils, recycled concrete aggregates, and repair and restoration. Each application is presented as a method for meeting specific design and construction objectives that today’s pavement practitioners must accomplish. The benefits, considerations, brief description, and summary of materials, design, and construction requirements, as well as a list of sustainable attributes, are provided for every solution. This guide is intended to be short, simple, and easy to understand. It was designed so that the most up-to-date and relevant information is easily extractable. It is not intended to be used as a design guide for any of the applications identified herein. Recommendations for additional information that can provide such details are given at the end of each solution discussion. The intended audience is practitioners, including engineers and managers who face decisions regarding what materials to specify in the pavement systems they design or manage. The audience also includes city and county engineers, along with the A/E firms that often represent them, and state DOT engineers at all levels who are seeking alternatives in this era of changing markets.

Bureau of HIV, STD, & Hepatitis Quarterly Newsletter, April-August 2011, Vol. 2

This newsletter of the Bureau of HIV, STD, and Hepatitis. The idea of the newsletter was to improve communication between the bureau and those who are delivering HIV, STD, and hepatitis prevention, surveillance, and care programs across the state. More specifically, we would like to use the newsletter as a vehicle through which we can improve prevention and care services in Iowa. We will try to do this by describing the services and programs we fund, and by reflecting on data that we collect to help prevention and care providers make decisions on policies, unmet needs, and service gaps in the state. At the same time, we will try to keep you abreast of new programs, resources, and policies that may affect the work that you do and the lives of those living with or affected by HIV, STDs, and viral hepatitis.
