The American Concrete Institute is pleased to be sponsoring the International Code Council’s 41st annual Building Safety Month. Building Safety Month is an international campaign celebrated in May to raise awareness about building safety. As a global society of 30,000 members dedicated to the development, dissemination, and adoption of concrete technology, ACI supports Building Safety Month to highlight the important role of building codes in creating safe and sustainable communities. "ACI strongly supports education and credentialing of personnel to be properly qualified to conduct tests and special inspections as required by code,” states Steve S. Szoke, ACI Code Advocacy Engineer. “Building Safety Month is an opportunity for ACI to assist in elevating the importance of adoption and enforcement of building codes with the public – especially regarding ACI’s code requirements for structural concrete design, concrete repair, fire resistance, and more.” ACI offers 30 certification programs to help meet the job requirements of the structural, architectural, and decorative concrete specified on jobsites. ACI also offers continuous education through the ACI University which includes, live webinars, on-demand courses, education publications, and certificate programs. These ACI programs give personnel the needed knowledge regarding necessary requirements and how they can be included in project specifications to require competency and build confidence for all concrete projects.
