The Pavement Performance Prediction Symposium (P3) brings together researchers, highway officials, and producers and anyone else with a stake in how asphalt pavements perform. Each year, the symposium is dedicated to a single aspect of performance. Past symposia have addressed topics such as moisture sensitivity, fatigue, oxidative aging, additives used in asphalt, adhesion and cohesion, models used to predict pavement performance, and cracking in asphalt pavements.

Features that make the Pavement Performance Prediction Symposium indispensable:

• Dedicated to a single key aspect of pavement performance.
• Invited speakers are top experts in the field.
• Time is built into each presentation for your questions and open discussion.
• Want to contribute more? If you’re not on the program but wish to convey your experience, bring a 15-20 minute presentation with you. Informal presentations are followed by 15-20 minutes of questions and discussion.
• Registration is limited to approximately 120 participants, ensuring ample opportunity for making key professional connections with symposium participants.
• The symposium is organized by Western Research Institute in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center, two recognized leaders in asphalt pavement performance.

The symposium will be held at the Hilton Garden Inn and University of Wyoming Conference Center in Laramie. The symposium fee includes Continental breakfast and lunch on Thursday and snacks and beverages at breaks.

You may register for both the Pavement Performance Prediction Symposium and the Petersen Asphalt Research Conference or either one separately; however most participants don’t want to miss any part of the week’s offerings.

Wyoming is known for its fine summer weather, so many who come to Laramie also plan to extend their visit to include time in the mountains of the Snowy Range or fishing in world-class trout streams nearby.
