Course Description:

This course presents math instruction for construction inspectors in context. Instead of solving abstract math problems, participants will immerse themselves in typical inspection roles and learn how to approach math problems as they would in the real world.

This course is part of the Math Basics for Highway Technicians series, which offers participants with a wide range of situations requiring everything from basic arithmetic calculations to using complex formulas.

Training Level:  This training is recommended for the Transportation Curriculum Coordination Council levels I, II, and III.

Target Audience:  The target audience for this training includes any individual who would like a basic technical math refresher, or introduction to math for construction inspection.

Learning Outcomes:

Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to solve mathematical problems related to construction inspection activities, including:

• Grading and excavation;
• PCC paving inspection;
• HMA paving inspection; and
• Structure inspection.

Thanks to the Federal Highway Administration’s Center for Local Aid Support and the National Local Technical Assistance Program Association (NLTAPA), Baystate Roads is able to provide you with free online training.
