Rose Paving / August 29, 2012

Concrete is a mixture of Portland cement, sand, rock, water, and chemical admixtures. There are as many different concrete mix designs as there are uses for concrete.

Article: Achieve Remarkable Results with an ADA-Compliant Parking Lot

Rose Paving / May 30, 2012

Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) is more important now than ever before. Not only is lack of compliant ADA parking designations or truncated warning domes, for example, considered a liability which may result in personal injury, but it is also in direct violation of the law. It is a common misconception that all buildings older than 1990 are “grandfathered,” and do not have to comply with the federal requirements of the ADA. This is not true. In fact, all building owners are mandated (as of March 15, 2012) to comply with Title III of the ADA, which specifically requires the removal of any and all barriers to entry in order to guarantee that persons with disabilities are provided accommodations and access equal to the general public into commercial facilities and areas of public accommodation. Building owners, facility managers, and even landlords can be jointly liable for violations including not adhering to “path of travel” standards, incorrectly constructing curb ramps, and excessive slope in ADA parking spaces.
