Welcome to the Washington Asphalt
Pavement Association's Asphalt Pavement Guide. This Guide will
provide you with a general overview of hot mix asphalt (HMA) pavement from materials to design to construction to
maintenance. It is intended to assist those who work in any way with HMA
pavement including architects, engineers, contractors, government agencies,
private consultants, students, and homeowners.

The
Washington Asphalt Pavement Association (WAPA)
Asphalt Pavement Guide works as a stand alone document or as the
Washington State companion to the
National Asphalt Pavement
Association's (NAPA) Guide for Hot Mix Asphalt Pavement CD-ROM.
Both the WAPA Guide and the NAPA Guide cover
the same basic topics. The NAPA Guide, a national publication,
provides more background and detailed information, while the WAPA Guide,
a local Washington State publication, provides information and design
recommendations specific to Washington State.
