The American Concrete Institute (ACI) is pleased to announce its sponsorship of the International Code Council’s (ICC) 44th annual Building Safety Month. Building Safety Month is an international campaign celebrated in May to raise awareness about building safety. This year ACI is sponsoring the week of May 26—31 with a theme of "Celebrating Success in Building Safety". As a global society of 35,000 members dedicated to the development, dissemination, and adoption of consensus-based standards, technical resources, and educational programs, ACI supports Building Safety Month to highlight the important role of building codes in creating safe and sustainable communities. “ACI is committed to ensuring that everyone has the knowledge needed to use concrete safely and effectively. ACI has been developing consensus standards for reference in building codes since 1941.” said Steve Szoke, ACI Code Advocacy Engineer. “Increased knowledge, understanding in situ performance during severe events, and advancing technologies continue to demand the development and maintenance of reference standards intended for adoption and enforcement in current building codes to better safeguard the public.” ACI offers a variety of resources for building officials, including select free publications, a new personnel qualifications document, and access to the four part Concrete International building safety article series. Visit the Code Officials webpage to access these free resources. With 30+ certification programs, hundreds of online learning courses, education publications, and certificate programs, the Institute strives to provide competency and build confidence for all concrete projects.
