History of SHA and MAA Partnering

During the 1990’s SHA and MAA entered into a Partnering agreement. SHA members included the Chief Engineer, the Office of Materials and Research, and the Office of Construction. David A. Bramble, Bryn Awel, P. Flanigan, Genstar, Maryland Paving, and T.C. Simons were all charter members from the MAA.

Our mutual mission was and still remains “provide high quality asphalt pavements at the lowest life cycle costs with contractors making a fair profit by working as a team to help SHA design, produce, and construct asphalt pavements.”
