American Concrete Institute

ACI's fall convention will take place in Denver from November 5-9. The convention, with the theme "COLORado Concrete," will highlight the versatility and value of decorative and architectural concrete as well as the importance of concrete as a green and sustainable construction material. More than 200 meetings are planned, 32 technical sessions are being offered, and more than 30 exhibitors and 1,400 attendees are expected to fill the exhibit hall.

The convention will include a reception honoring James Pierce, an ACI Fellow and past president; a symposium highlighting applications of fiber-reinforced concrete; a session on green concrete in construction; and a mixer exploring the tastes, textures, and seasons of Colorado. Additionally, ACI's nationally recognized student competition will challenge teams of students to construct fiber-reinforced concrete bowling balls that achieve optimal performance under specified failure. The ACI Rocky Mountain Chapter hosts the convention.
