The American Concrete Institute is honored to welcome Andreas Tselebidis to the ACI Fall 2016 Convention in Philadelphia, PA, USA, as the International Lunch Guest Speaker. Tselebidis will present “Engineering the Impossible—Sustainable Concrete Solutions for Day to Day Applications to Supertall and Slender Skyscrapers,” on Sunday, October 23, 2016. The emphasis of this presentation will be on ecologically efficient, sustainable, and durable concrete for day-to-day application as well as concrete designed for superstructures. "In the future we will live predominately in cities, which will require an environmental focused construction with long-lasting structures—structures that will be able to resist deterioration and improve on impacts like ASR, chloride penetration, abrasion, sulfate attack, and carbonation" Prior to the lunch, ACI’s International Forum will provide an opportunity for convention attendees to meet and learn from ACI international partners, ACI chapter representatives, and ACI leadership about worldwide events, activities, initiatives, and common themes of interest to the concrete materials, design, and construction industry. Learn more. Andreas Tselebidis is Director of Concrete Technology & Solutions in the Admixtures Systems Group of BASF Construction Chemicals and is located in New York, NY. In his role, Andreas is responsible for the initiation, evaluation, and implementation of Green Sense Concrete technologies that address widespread concrete performance issues in sustainable superstructures. Tselebidis has been with BASF for more than 15 years. He started working out of Germany as the head of concrete research and development. His roles consisted of the evaluation and implementation of worldwide research projects for concrete and mortars. In 2008, Tselebidis moved to the United States to support important construction projects such as 432 Park Avenue, the World Trade Center Towers and many more. Tselebidis has authored more than 30 technical papers in various concrete industry journals and has been an invited guest speaker for numerous international concrete industry events. He has nine patents on concrete technology. Currently, Tselebidis is responsible for the global implementation of sustainable concrete solutions on signature projects worldwide.
