Learn How Surface Tech’s REBAR for Asphalt Raises the Standard in Pavement Design
Surface Tech is now an official AIA Continuing Education Provider, offering architects and engineers direct access to technical knowledge that elevates infrastructure design. Our new course—“The Future of Pavement Performance: Aramid-Reinforced Asphalt”—is available for free through GreenCE and qualifies for 1 AIA HSW/LU continuing education credit.
This course explores REBAR for Asphalt, Surface Tech’s aramid-reinforced composite asphalt (ARCA) technology, engineered to reduce cracking, improve durability, and extend pavement life—all while aligning with the latest industry standards and sustainability certifications.
Setting the Standard with Science-Backed Performance
REBAR for Asphalt is designed and dosed to meet or exceed the ASTM D8229 standard, which specifies a minimum of 2.10 oz of pure aramid fiber per U.S. ton of asphalt mix. Surface Tech's solution consistently delivers performance above this benchmark, helping you meet rigorous design and durability expectations across a variety of commercial, industrial, and institutional projects.
