Abstract:
To reduce costs and minimize construction schedules for the recent light rail extension in the Phoenix, AZ, USA metropolitan area, track slabs and platform plinths were constructed using fiber-reinforced concrete instead of traditional steel-reinforced concrete. For every concrete placement, the use of fiber-reinforced concrete is estimated to have saved at least 1 to 2 days of labor.

A new certification program co-sponsored by NEx: An ACI Center of Excellence for Nonmetallic Building Materials is now available through ACI Certification. The program, titled “GFRP Reinforcing Bar Inspector” is designed to qualify individuals responsible for inspecting the installation of glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) reinforcing bars in concrete construction. This program reinforces NEx’s mission to advance the safe and effective use of nonmetallic materials.

This article introduces the latest fiber-reinforced polymer panel system developed by the author—SPiRe®+. These panels can serve as formwork, corrosion resistant reinforcement, and waterproofing. With their flat and smooth exterior face and protruding T-profiles on the interior face, the panels act as reinforcing elements for strengthening beams, slabs, and walls.

There is a lack of comprehensive guidelines for the use of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) dowels in concrete pavement construction. In light of this, NEx: An ACI Center of Excellence for Nonmetallic Building Materials has announced a newly published document SG23.03 (25): NEx Guideline: FRP Dowels in Concrete Pavements.

Symposium Papers
365
This Symposium Volume reports on the latest advancements related to the various facets of modeling and performance assessment of concrete structures. The volume contains 10 papers that were presented at the ACI Convention held in Toronto on April 1st, 2025. The symposium was dedicated to celebrate Prof. Frank J. Vecchio’s extraordinary research contributions and accomplishments in the development of behavioral models and analytical tools for the assessment of concrete structures. The papers cover different aspects related to modeling and performance assessment of concrete structures including developments of the Modified Compression Field Theory, finite element modeling of punching shear in slabs, behavior and modeling of steel fiber reinforced concrete members subjected to torsion, modeling of concrete structures subjected to impact loading, behavior and modeling of slender walls, modeling of concrete frame elements, behavior and modeling of GFRP reinforced members, crack-based assessment of concrete structures, and advancements in modeling deterioration mechanisms and repaired concrete structures. Sincere acknowledgements are extended to all authors, speakers and reviewers as well as to ACI staff for making this symposium a success. Anca-Cristina Ferche, Editor Vahid Sadeghian, Editor
