We’ve just celebrated the 40th anniversary of the invention of Continuous Compaction Control (CCC) – later dubbed as Intelligent Compaction (IC) – in Vienna, Austria on Nov. 29, 2018. More than 160 IC-CCC experts (pretty much include all IC-CCC research, development, and implementation from all of the world) from more than 2 dozen countries have attended this historical event. This Symposium proceedings is published by the Technical University of Vienna (TU Wien).

Here is also a historical moment with the inventor of IC-CCC in the above photo (from the left to the right): Prof. Antonio Correia of Minho University, Portugal (leader in EU IC-CCC specification and implementation, Vice President of IICTG), A. Sandstrom of Geodynamic, Sweden (inventor of IC-CCC), Dr. George Chang of Transtec Group, USA (leader in US IC-CCC specification and global implementation, President of IICTG), and Prof. Soheil Nazarian of University of Texas – El Paso, USA (leader in US IC-CCC research, Executive Member of IICTG).

IC-CCC has come a long way for the past 40 years! It is anticipated to be elevated to the next levels with the integration with other Intelligent Construction Technologies (www.IICTG.org) in the decades to come!

Three IICTG (International Intelligent Construction Technologies Group) founding members will present at the 40 Years Continuous Compaction Control (CCC) Symposium in Vienna, Austria on November 29, 2018.

Dr. George K. Chang, Transtec Group, USA (President of IICTG) will make two presentations: “Intelligent Compaction Measurement Values – A systematic classification” and “Intelligent Compaction implementation in US – Issues and solutions.” Prof. Antonio G.Correia, U. of Minho, Portugal (Vice President of IICTG) will present “Compaction improvements from an industry 4.0 perspective.” Prof. Soheil Nazarian, U. of Texas El Paso, USA (Direct of Technical Affairs of IICTG) will present “Institutional challenges and opportunities in implementation of Continuous Compaction Control.”

There will also be an Open IICTG Meeting on Nov. 30, 2018 at the same location of the Symposium. Check out the entire Symposium program to celebrate the 40 years of CCC!

During the Trimble Dimensions Conference (Nov. 5-7, 2018), there will be several exciting sessions on Intelligent Compaction (IC) and Paver-Mounted Thermal Profiles (PMTP) sessions. They include: Global Intelligent Compaction and Thermal Profiling Implementation and Veta Software Demonstration (by Dr. George K. Chang of Transtec Group, and President of IICTG.org), Minnesota’s Use of Paver-Mounted Thermal Profiling and Veta to Identify Workmanship Issues (by Ms. Rebecca Embacher of Minnesota DOT, Team lead of Intelligent Construction Technologies Group of National Road Research Alliance, and Technical Committee Member of IICTG.org). Check it out Trimble Dimensions!

The World Highways magazine published a great article in its July/August 2018 issue : “Smarter Compaction” with Intelligent Compaction (IC) and Paver-Mounted Thermal Profiler (PMTP) technologies to improve construction quality. Check it out!
