Value to Members
We focus on organizational excellence to create resources that provide members with needed information, and we help members build lasting industry relationships.
Unified Voice
We provide a unified voice through partnerships with governing organizations about education, specifications, and policies and procedures that better the industry.
Commitment to Industry
We promote the use of asphalt and grow our reputation by acting with integrity and using innovation, fair market principles, and industry best practices.
Attending a UAPA event is the best way to get to know our association.
It’s easy to forget the importance of being in a live face-to-face setting with others from the same business community. Being active in UAPA can bring many benefits. There is power in being connected to other people who are active in your line of work.

In partnership with UDOT, UAPA is pleased to announce that we are hosting a UAPA Member Briefing to discuss, review, and help answer any questions around the binder sampling program for UDOT.
As we all know, we (both industry and UDOT) experienced some difficulty with getting proper binder samples this last year. Contributing to these challenges may be some residual confusion with the new Masterworks database. At this briefing, UDOT will summarize the procedures and reasons behind what the department does. As part of the discussion, UDOT will also welcome any feedback from industry on what could be done to make the process better. Industry and UDOT feel this kind of training and information exchange is vital because if we don’t have properly witnessed samples the test results can be called into question.
This is a great chance to address concerns; review standards; review best practices; and develop any needed action items moving forward. We hope you will join us!

We are excited to announce that the 2021 Utah Asphalt Conference (UAC) is going virtual this year! We’d love to see you in person again in 2021, but out of an abundance of concern for the health and safety of our attendees we are moving the conference online.
Although the conference this year may be virtual, we promise to provide you with the same top-quality education AND continuing education credits for PE licenses you have come to expect from the UAC. This includes all the tools, technologies, and best practices you need to accomplish your goals for 2021! Plus, we pledge to do it at a fraction of the regular registration rates this year with full conference registrations starting at just $75/attendee.
So, mark your calendar for March 16-18, 2021! On each of those days UAPA will bring six educational webinars for you to choose from in addition to some great general sessions and fun networking sessions with prizes! To help accommodate your busy schedule, you can sign up for as many classes as you like. At the conclusion of each class, we will give a live quiz to those attendees needing PE continuing education credits and certificate will be issued for proof of attendance at that class immediately following the conference.

UAPA Member Appreciation

Once each year, UAPA recognizes its membership in a lunch event that promotes networking and a lesson in axe throwing, followed by a friendly competition in an elimination style tournament. The winner gets bragging rights. This is a laid-back event that allows our membership to get to know each other, and gives the organization a way to say “thank you” for being members.
Annual UAPA Golf Classic

The UAPA Golf Classic provides a relaxed setting for golfers to associate outside of the rigors of our industry. It allows UAPA to celebrate all of the people who make our industry great and to think of others who could use extra help in our community. Join us for some good fun, a great day of golf, and an excellent way to give back to others.
UAPA FALL CONFERENCE

The UAPA Fall Conference in St. George, Utah, or our “fall conference,” is UAPA’s answer to engaging our members outside of the immediate Wasatch Front area. Recognizing that we were not drawing the numbers we would like to see at the asphalt conference from other geographic areas of the state, we made the decision to take the conference on the road to those areas in need of the same quality education.
Utah Asphalt Conference

The Utah Asphalt Conference, held every year at the end of February, focuses on the opportunities and challenges within our industry that are specific to Utah. Our general sessions and workshops will set you on course to provide superior quality pavements and gain valuable business insights. Explore new developments and discuss the hottest topics with your colleagues during this information-packed conference designed specifically for the asphalt pavement industry.
