Abstract:
The Rob and Melani Walton Center for Planetary Health at Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ, USA, rises from a triangular lot like a giant cracked-open geode. Clad in a shell of glass fiber-reinforced concrete (GFRC), the building’s paneled façade is based on biomimicry of a saguaro cactus’ orientation to the sun.

Advanced workflows enable contractors to identify and correct issues before the concrete is placed, providing cost reductions and production increases, while automated machine control systems deliver surface tolerances that exceed traditional human capabilities. These digital workflows can optimize how concrete is placed, monitored, and verified, as well as improve quality control timelines.
CI4709Q&A
This month’s Q&A discusses the reinforcement stiffness ratio ρne that can be used for comparing the performance of various reinforcement types in slabs-on-ground and the design approach for glass fiber-reinforced polymer reinforcement in ACI/NEx MNL-6(23) based on percent reduction in unrestrained shrinkage strain from the enhanced aggregate interlock design of ACI PRC-360-10.

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.
