NEx Seminar I: Durability, Fire & Seismic Performance of Nonmetallic Building Materials

November 4, 2026 to November 4, 2026

Starting Time:   10:00AM EST

End Time:   1:00PM EST

Sponsor(s): NEx and American Concrete Institute

Description:
This webinar is jointly sponsored by NEx: An ACI Center of Excellence for Nonmetallic Building Materials and the American Concrete Institute (ACI).

This session will examine the durability, seismic performance, and fire behavior of nonmetallic materials used in concrete structures. Presentations will address code requirements for GFRP-reinforced concrete, long-term performance of GFRP reinforcement in aggressive environments, seismic behavior of GFRP and hybrid GFRP-steel reinforced systems, and the response of polymer-modified and other nonmetallic building materials to fire. Research findings and emerging design considerations will be discussed to support the safe and durable use of nonmetallic materials in structural applications.
