RCC Pavement Council – RCC US Pavement Tour [WAITLIST]

Site Tour Overview

It is our pleasure to invite you to express your interest in attending the Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC) US Pavement Tour, taking place over one week during either the April or May (TBC) in Texas and Georgia, USA.

We are excited to share that this year, the Roller Compacted Concrete Pavement Council (RCC Pavement Council) of the US, is hosting the RCC US Pavement Tour specifically for Australian & New Zealand delegates. 

This tour will visit 3-5 sites across Texas and Georgia, including active construction sites, completed pavements and workshop sessions with RCC Pavement Council. This is an incredible opportunity for you to view and learn first-hand about the application, design, construction, and performance of Roller Compacted Concrete Pavements in North America.

The North American experience with RCC Pavements has matured over the last decade with a substantial number of successful projects completed, and numerous projects due for construction in 2025.  RCC Pavements are truly recognised as international leaders in the utilisation and development of this construction method.

AUS & NZ Targeted Delegates:

• Pavement designers
• Contractors
• Pavement equipment owners
• Interested industry professionals

About the RCC Pavement Council

Founded in 2014, the RCC Pavement Council is a leading trade association dedicated to advancing the construction and development of Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC) Pavements. The Council represents over 25 industry members, including RCC contractors, equipment and materials suppliers, and engineers.

RCC pavements were first introduced in the 1970s to meet the needs of the Canadian logging industry, which required strong, cost-effective pavements capable of withstanding massive loads and specialised equipment. Today, RCC is recognised as a threshold industry standard, and the Council plays a vital role in supporting ongoing research and the development of high standards in RCC paving protocols.

The RCC Pavement Council is committed to improving the quality, sustainability, and application of RCC pavements through active promotion and research efforts. The Council’s collaborative initiatives with leading industry organisations such as the American Concrete Pavement Association (ACPA), the Portland Cement Association (PCA), and the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association (NRMCA) further support the advancement of RCC technologies across North America and beyond.
