Construction Industry OrganizationsAmerican Concrete Institute (ACI) The
American Concrete Institute (ACI) is a nonprofit technical and educational society
organized in 1904 and is one of the world's leading authorities on concrete technology.
ACI is a forum for the discussion of all matters related to concrete and the development
of solutions to problems. ACI conducts this forum through conventions and meetings;
the ACI Structural Journal, the ACI Materials Journal, Concrete International,
and technical publications; chapter activities; and technical committee work.
As its chartered objective states, its purpose is "to provide a comradeship
in finding the best ways to do concrete work of all kinds and in spreading that
knowledge."
By maintaining a high standard of professional and technical
ability in its committee memberships and in the authorship of papers and publications,
as well as in local chapter programs, ACI has contributed to a detailed knowledge
of materials and their resulting structures in support of concrete construction
and commercial construction companies around the United States. ACI publishes
reliable information on concrete and its applications, conducts educational seminars,
provides a standard certification program for the industry, provides local forums
for discussion through the Chapter program, and encourages student involvement
in the concrete field. Committee members involved with these activities meet at
bi-annual conventions. For more information about this organization, please
