CAPRI Subcommittees

CAPRI organizes its work across four core focus areas, each led by a subcommittee of member representatives. Together these groups identify critical needs, evaluate technologies, facilitate knowledge transfer, and build a roadmap for future research in asphalt pavement.

Critical Issues

Identify and prioritize aspects of asphalt pavement performance and sustainability that need to be improved.
Identify gaps, hurdles, and unclear aspects in existing policies, procedures, and practices.

Technology Evaluation

Identify technologies and processes intended to improve asphalt pavement performance and sustainability.
Evaluate the readiness level of those technologies, gaps in knowledge, and barriers to implementation.
Recommend strategies to move those technologies toward implementation.

Technology Transfer

Identify research findings and best practices that are ready for implementation.
Recommend strategies to facilitate the transfer of those technologies into practice.
Manage the CAPRI website.

Research Roadmap

Assemble recommendations of research and technology transfer needs from other CAPRI subcommittees and other sources.
Prioritize needs, develop research need statements, and advocate for funding by appropriate organizations.
