Post-bike ride in San Antonio, TX, July 2013, from left: Randy Poston, Sharon Wood, Terry Holland, Dan Falconer, and Greg Zeisler. The ACI Foundation, a non-profit subsidiary of the American Concrete Institute, has announced the formation of the Daniel W. Falconer Memorial Fellowship, created in honor of the late Dan Falconer, FACI, who passed away July 29, 2015, after a courageous battle with cancer. Read more. Dan served as ACI’s Managing Director of Engineering for more than 17 years, and was an ACI Fellow, given this distinction for his outstanding contributions to the production and use of concrete materials, products, and structures through education, research, and development. This new fellowship will be awarded to graduate students studying in the field of structural engineering with an emphasis in reinforced concrete design, and will be funded through the generosity of friends and colleagues. Learn more about the Fellowship. “Dan was one of the driving forces behind the reorganization of ACI 318-14, Structural Concrete Building Code,” said Sharon L. Wood, ACI President. “It is difficult to say goodbye to a colleague who had such a strong influence on the technical activities within ACI. He was an outstanding engineer, a skilled manager, and most importantly, a close friend.” Read more in Sharon Wood’s President’s Memo. Randall W. Poston, past Chair of ACI Committee 318 noted that “Dan had an incredible gift of taking a controversial technical issue and breaking it down into practical elements that would develop consensus. This came from his years of practicing structural engineering before joining ACI. He knew with continued resolve and steadfast guidance, committee members would eventually come together and ‘do the right thing.’ The American Concrete Institute will contribute a dollar-for-dollar match for donations made by individuals and companies.
