Upcoming Public Seminars
Designing Concrete Structures Reinforced with GFRP Bars Using the New ACI CODE 440.11-22
March 12, 2025 (8:00 AM - 5:00 PM EDT)
(Registration opens soon)
Continuing Education Credit: 7.5 PDH / 0.75 CEU
Who should attend: This is a great opportunity for engineers, owners, contractors, consultants, students, and manufacturers to get familiar with the technical and engineering aspects of the ACI 440.11 code and learn more about designing and detailing with GFRP reinforcement.
The primary purpose of this seminar is to educate attendees on ACI CODE 440.11-22 and the application of GFRP reinforced concrete in the construction industry. ACI 440.11-22 “Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete Reinforced with Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) Bars” is a newly developed design code for new concrete structures reinforced with GFRP bars. It is based on ACI 318 code requirements for steel-reinforced concrete but modifies ACI 318 code requirements for the specific use of GFRP reinforcing bars as an alternative to steel reinforcing bars. It addresses construction and material requirements, structural systems, members, and strength and serviceability requirements. Among the subjects covered are design and construction for strength, serviceability, and durability; load combinations, load factors, and strength reduction factors; structural analysis methods; deflection limits; development and splicing of reinforcement; construction document information; and field inspection and testing.
Related Documents: Attendees will recieve a free copy of ACI CODE-440.11-22: Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete Reinforced with Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) Bars and MNL-7(23) GFRP-Reinforced Concrete Design Handbook.
Presenters:
- Vicki L. Brown, PhD, P.E., FACI, Distinguished Professor, Department of Civil Engineering, Widener University
- William J. Gold, PE, Engineer, American Concrete Institute
