Mission

Our mission is to make Portland Cement Concrete the material of choice for airport, highway, industrial, street and local road pavements.
Working in partnership with its members, the Mid-Atlantic Chapter promotes quality concrete pavements in the region by educating specifiers, legislators and government officials about the benefits of the locally manufactured, environmentally responsible, safe, and cost-effective pavement investment: CONCRETE.

History

The Northeast Chapter, the first affiliated chapter of the American Concrete Pavement Association (ACPA), was formed in April 1987 to promote quality concrete pavements in the 13-state Northeast quadrant of the U.S. -- from Virginia to Maine. In January 2006, to better serve our members and customers, the Northeast Chapter divided into three independent Chapters, which are the Mid-Atlantic, New York State and Pennsylvania Chapters.

The ACPA Mid-Atlantic Chapter is one of twenty-four ACPA Chapter/State Associations in the United States affiliated with the national ACPA Founded in 1964, ACPA’s focus is on providing services in support of local Chapter programs and in nationally promoting the benefits of concrete pavements for interstate highways, state and county highways, municipal streets, local roads, military facilities and airports.

Today

The Chapter supports 41 members representing paving contractors, cement companies, equipment manufacturers, material suppliers, ready mixed concrete producers, aggregate producers, consultants, and affiliates. The Chapter serves as the recognized voice of the industry and leads local initiatives on behalf of its members.
ACPA provides resources to assist specifiers and members with technical expertise needed for:

• Design
• Specifications development
• Construction
• Restoration
• Rehabilitation of concrete pavements

Our Chapter, along with the National ACPA works hard to represent and promote the concrete pavement industry in federal, state and local legislative matters affecting surface transportation.

Chapter staff members are in daily touch with state DOT, federal, and municipal decision-makers along with private specifiers, architects, and engineers. They routinely conduct concrete pavement workshops, seminars, and bus tours, as well as providing on-call technical assistance for all aspects of concrete pavements.

In summary, the Chapter provides:

• Expert technical support programs and services in pavement technology
• Liaison with local government agencies, legislators and affiliated organizations
• Workshops and seminars designed to furnish the latest technical information
• Van trips, open houses and promotion initiatives to enhance awareness of concrete pavement products, processes and solutions
• Pavement awards programs
