ACI is accepting submissions through February 28 for an award established this year to recognize individuals or teams highlighting concrete’s role related to sustainability. Concrete Sustainability Award candidates will include industry professionals who have demonstrated or improved concrete’s sustainable attributes through research, design, education, or construction; and/or the use of concrete in innovative ways to contribute to a more sustainable built environment. Notes ACI President Kenneth Hover, “The Institute has worked diligently to contribute to these developments with sustainability-related publications, partnerships with other organizations, education programs, and convention activities.” — www.concrete.org/members/mem_info_awards.htm#sustainability
