SUMMARY:WEBINAR - Design\, Construction and Maintenance of Sidewalks and Recreational Trails
DESCRIPTION:Municipal urban sidewalks and recreational trails are intended to provide a safe and durable surface for the public. The primary surface material for urban sidewalks has traditionally been concrete with recreational trails traditionally surfaced with hot mix asphalt. However\, there is significant pressure in urban areas to provide “enhanced” treatments including interlocking concrete\, clay bricks\, granite setts\, stamped and coloured concrete and various recycled products. \nMunicipalities are faced with challenges on how to evaluate\, approve and maintain various products. How can each be constructed and maintained in a cost effective manner? How do I determine when I need to “fix” something? What is involved? What are the long-term costs to maintain this infrastructure? How to do I build and maintain sidewalks and recreational trails to be compliant with disability codes? \nThis webinar begins with an overview of the basic functions of sidewalks and recreational trails. Various types of sidewalk surfacings including concrete\, asphalt\, rubber\, recycled materials\, natural stone\, paving stones and bricks\, etc. Features and properties of each are discussed including design\, construction\, expected life\, initial and maintenance costs and safety. Methods of maintenance and asset preservation such as the installation of expansion joints\, surface texture improvement\, slab jacking and stabilization\, etc. are discussed along with proper construction and maintenance techniques. \nWebinar Benefits \nUnderstand key components and factors necessary for the cost effective construction and maintenance of sidewalks and recreational trails.\nKnowing what to concentrate on to ensure the maximum life of the assets.\nMethods to evaluate the effectiveness of “new” preservation and maintenance treatments.\nAsset condition inspection and monitoring procedures to effectively management the assets and limit liability. \nInstructor: David K. Hein\, P.Eng. \nDavid Hein is a consulting Civil Engineer with over 35 years of experience in the design\, evaluation and management of pavement infrastructure. He recently retired from Applied Research Associates\, Inc. of Toronto\, Ontario. He is the past president of the American Society of Civil Engineers Transportation and Development Institute\, long term member of the Transportation Association of Canada and has represented Canada on the World Road Association pavements and asset management committees since 2002. He has been involved in numerous national and international projects including many of the public/private/ partnership highway construction projects across Canada and the United States. Mr. Hein has completed numerous pavement design\, evaluation and management projects throughout British Columbia including both design and management of the Sea to Sky Highway and is a regular instructor completing specialty design\, construction and maintenance courses for the British Columbia Ministry of Transportation. \n Register Now!

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Construction\, Excavation and Demolition involving Hazardous Building Materials
DESCRIPTION:Section 20.112 of the OHS Regulation was amended to require additional information during hazardous materials surveys. The upcoming breakfast session will provide an opportunity to learn more about these changes and how they can impact your scope of work under renovation and demolition projects involving these materials. \nThe process of sampling building materials to test for hazardous substances may seem straight forward\, but it is often done incorrectly producing misleading or false results. This session will also provide a refresher on regulatory sampling requirements for submitting suspect bulk materials to a laboratory for determination of asbestos content. The presentation will also include a limited discussion of lead and silica bulk sampling protocols\, and will emphasize the importance of appropriate sample collection\, handling and shipping to a laboratory including selection of a laboratory and sampling documentation. \nUnderstanding the correct sampling and analytical methods is essential to a successful hazmat assessment outcome prior to renovation or demolition activities. The significance of adequate training and experience for the person carrying out the hazardous material sampling/survey will also be discussed. In summary\, this session will provide you with the fundamentals of interpreting hazardous material surveys and their associated analytical reports. \nPresenter: Michel J. Crépeau is Technical Operations Manager with Total Safety Services Inc. in Burnaby\, BC. He has over 30 years of local\, national and international experience in occupational hygiene/health & safety and environment\, and has managed the development\, implementation and performance of a wide variety of EHS programs. Michel’s work experience includes federal\, provincial\, municipal and industrial risk assessments as well as hazard investigations. He has worked extensively in the recognition\, evaluation and control of workplace occupational health hazards and frequently provides expert advice on hazardous materials assessments and remediation. Michel is registered with the Canadian Registration Board of Occupational Hygienists (ROH)\, certified with the American Board of Industrial Hygiene (CIH) and certified with the Canadian Society of Safety Engineering (CHSC). He holds a Bachelor of Science Degree (Chemistry) from the University of Ottawa and a Graduate Diploma (Occupational Hygiene) from McGill University. \n Register Now!
