Abstract:
The ACI Concrete Construction Special Inspector certification program was designed to provide the necessary link between design and construction. The Special Inspector exam training class and the certification program function as a way for an engineer to become updated on concrete technology. Taking and passing the Special Inspector certification test indicates a basic understanding of concrete technology and how it can be applied to concrete construction. As a result, the program is gaining recognition internationally.
