WORKING WITH CONCRETE - BASIC SKILLS (1 day)
Auckland 14 March
Palmerston North 19 April
Christchurch 24 May
Many minor roadwork and maintenance contract jobs require provision of concrete for drainage and utility surrounds, crossings,
kerbing, driveways, footpaths, manholes, inspection chambers and kerb and channel construction. If poorly constructed and
not up to specification, then repairs to defective concrete work will be both costly and time consuming; also poor finishing can
present a perception of poor quality.
This course aims to give workers basic knowledge relating to preparing, placing and finishing minor concrete works and the
equipment needed to produce quality results.
Topics Include:
• The basic principles of concrete mix design and the production, placing and testing of concrete
• Different types of concrete add-mixtures and their properties- retarders, air entrainers, plasticisers etc.
• The basics of mixing and preparing concrete
• Preparation for and construction of both slipform and block kerbing
• Batching and mixing, transporting and handling of concrete
• Basic techniques for placing, finishing and curing concrete
• The basics of calculating and ordering materials for small scale concrete operations
• Types and methods of remedial works
• Construction of basic vehicle entrance crossings
On completion of this course participants will have the knowledge to:
• Do a basic assessment of the materials, tools and equipment required for small on-site concreting works
• Prepare basic ground formations and construct formwork, boxing and shuttering to receive concrete
• Understand the type and quantities of concrete required, in accordance with the contract specifications
• Show a basic understanding of NZS 3124 in respect of the mixing, transportation, placement and curing of concrete
• Be aware of the different types of concrete mixes and their properties, including the use of add-mixtures
• Understand the basic requirements of preparing and laying kerb and channel
• Correctly carry out basic vehicle crossing, footpath or similar work

ROAD LIGHTING COURSE a -
to as / nzs 1158
(1 day - with optional night tour)
Auckland 14 May
Christchurch 27 June
Wellington 7 August
The New Zealand road lighting series of standards is continually
being updated. The updates make several changes, which are
relatively small overall, but key ones in terms of environmental
protection, maintenance, and observer position luminance
analysis. The results recognise changes in trends internationally
and incorporate user feedback on the original publications.
The overall effect on road and pedestrian area lighting designs
is small but subtle and it is important that designers and asset
owners understand these. A new part is 1158.4 Lighting of
Pedestrian Crossings (June 2009) and revisions published in
2010 include 1158.6 Luminaires and 1158.1.2 Guide to design
installation operation and maintenance. The 2012 course
material will address these revisions and the new standard.
This one day course covers the series of AS/NZS 1158 Road
Lighting Standards. The design of lighting for vehicle and
pedestrian road users is covered as well as historical reasoning
behind “why we light roads”. It allows users to gain full
advantage from the broad guidance they now provide. The
course will cover the elements of good road lighting design for
all parts of the road network using the computer techniques
specified in the standard.
Topics Include:
• Outline of the new issue standards
• Photometric issues and principles
• Field measurements
• Safety benefits
• Developing a lighting hierarchy
• Light sources including LED lighting
• The design method
• The basics of design methods
• Elements of good design
• The road lighting asset and key measures to minimise
lifetime costs
• Specific case studies (if submitted by the attendees)
For further information on either of these courses contact
Jan Kivell, details below.
ROAD LIGHTING COURSE B -
DESIGN TRAINING
(1 day - with optional night tour)
Auckland 15 May
Christchurch 28 June
Wellington 8 August
This Road Lighting Design Training course provides practical
guidance for those involved in the detail. Road Lighting Design
is a skill that is essential for Asset owners of Road Lighting
(Road Controlling Authorities, Councils and NZ Transport
Agency) to have ready access to. Minor revisions to the suite of
road lighting standards have been released and a new standard
for pedestrian lighting has been released and the course
includes the application of these upgrades.
Since the introduction of the luminance approach to road
lighting design (1983) each and every Category V lighting
schemes requires specific analysis. For each and every design it
is essential that:-
- an adequate ‘design brief’ is established.
- the asset owner has access to those with skills to define
adequately a design brief
- the asset owner has access to those with appropriate
training in the solution of a road lighting design task
- the asset owner can evaluate those solutions and correlate
them to the brief originally established
- the asset owner has an understanding of any lifetime
maintenance issues that the design encourages
This one day design seminar builds on the NZIHT Road Lighting
one-day workshop. It covers the design methodology of the
series of AS/NZS 1158 Road Lighting Standards and covers any
relevant material from the “rightlight” project.
Topics Include:
- Building a road lighting design brief
- Understanding a road lighting design brief
- For Category V tasks
• using computer based solution finders to look at
appropriate lighting options
• using computer tool to finalise selected design and
ensure design is compliant and meets (and does not
exceed) the design brief.
• straight road and complex intersection analysis
• implementation of the various layout rules
- For Category P tasks
• using computer based information to establish
appropriate lighting solutions
• implementation of the various layout rules
- For Pedestrian Crossing lighting
• an understanding of the LTP’s and methods to calculate
them
Luminaire Photometrics as necessary
- Specific case studies (attendees invited to bring their
own tasks for consideration and to see solutions evolve).
Night Tour
An optional night tour is available on the evening of course A. This tour of road lighting installations will take approximately
two hours, commencing at dusk. Participants will get to see examples of both good and not so good installations and, weather
permitting, an opportunity to observe and/or take lighting field measurements.
An additional charge of $60.00 per person + GST is payable for the optional night tour.
