American Concrete Institute

The American Concrete Institute (ACI) is a non-profit technical society and standard developing organization (SDO). ACI was founded in 1904 and its headquarters are currently located in Farmington Hills, Michigan, USA.〔ACI: A Century of Progress, American Concrete Institute, 2003, | url=http://www.concrete.org/Portals/0/Files/PDF/ACI_History_Book.pdf〕 ACI's mission is "ACI develops and disseminates consensus-based knowledge on concrete and its uses."〔ACI Strategic Plan, 2013, American Concrete Institute | url=http://www.concrete.org/AboutACI/StrategicPlan.aspx〕
==ACI History==
A lack of standards for making concrete blocks resulted in a negative perception of concrete for construction. An editorial by Charles C. Brown in the September 1904 issue of ''Municipal Engineering'' discussed the idea of forming an organization to bring order and standard practices to the industry.〔Charles C. Brown, Municipal Engineering, 1904〕 In 1905 the National Association of Cement Users was formally organized and adopted a constitution and bylaws. Richard Humphrey was elected as the first President of the association. The first committees were appointed at the 1905 convention in Indianapolis and offered preliminary reports on a number of subject areas. The first complete committee reports were offered at the 1907 convention. The association's first official headquarters was established in 1908 at Richard Humphrey's office in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Clerical and editorial help was brought on to more effectively organize conventions and publish proceedings of the institute. The "Standard Building Regulations for the Use of Reinforced Concrete" was adopted at the 1910 convention and became the association's first reinforced concrete building code. By 1912 the association had adopted 14 standards. At the December 1912 convention the association approved publication of a monthly journal of proceedings. In July 1913 the Board of Direction of NACU decided to change its name to the American Concrete Institute. The new name was deemed to be more descriptive of the work being conducted within the institute.〔ACI: A Century of Progress, American Concrete Institute, 2003, pp 3-10 | url=http://www.concrete.org/Portals/0/Files/PDF/ACI_History_Book.pdf〕
