Abstract:
Concrete is a natural product - sand, rocks, and cement. Once water is introduced into the mix, concrete has about a 90-minute shelf-life. What Bruce has been able to do successfully as the ASCC Technical Director is take a lifetime of problem-solving from all aspects of concrete construction and disseminate the information such that the "lessons learned" are widely circulated among designers, contractors and even owners. One significant accomplishment was helping to link ACI and ASCC together for efforts related to Quality. MNL -5(19) The Contractor's Guide to Quality Concrete Construction is a fantastic handbook that really ought to be on any designer or contractor's bookshelf. And, of course, Joint ACI-ASCC Committee 117 Tolerances. This presentation will include examples of ASCC publications and work Bruce has done that has resulted in smoother projects, cleaner designs, more understandable specifications, and happier owners.
