New ACI Code 440.11-22: Bldg Code Requirements - Structural Concrete Reinforced w/ GFRP Bars
2026-09-25 21:00 - 22:00 (Asia/Singapore)
Presenter: William J. Gold, P.E., Senior Engineer – American Concrete Institute, Hosted by the ACI Singapore Chapter

This presentation will identify the basic material performance properties of GFRP reinforcing bars; how they compare to traditional steel reinforcement, and how they should be used. It will discuss the basic code requirements for GFRP reinforced concrete, and how the new code relates to other key codes and standards from ACI, ASTM and ICC.

Learning Objectives:

Describe the code requirements they relate to the installation of GFRP bars and other general considerations for their field application.

Identify the basic material performance properties of GFRP reinforcing bars and how they compare to traditional steel reinforcement.

Explain where the new ACI code for GFRP reinforced concrete applies, what the limitations are for using this code are, and how it relates to other standards from ACI, ASTM, and ICC.

Gain a basic knowledge of mechanics of GFRP reinforced concrete and how it compares to steel reinforced concrete.

2026 Annual Seminar
2026-10-22 08:30 - 18:30 | Furama City Centre, 60 Eu Tong Sen Street, Singapore 059804, 60 Eu Tong Seng Street, Siingapore, 059804
Concrete Beyond Boundaries

Advancing Sustainable, Intelligent and Resilient Construction for Future Built Environment

The seminar will bring together distinguished experts, academics, government representatives, engineers and industry leaders from Singapore and overseas to exchange knowledge and perspectives on the future of concrete and the built environment.The technical programme will address a broad spectrum of emerging developments, including low-carbon and sustainable concrete materials, advanced reinforcement systems, fibre-reinforced concrete, resilient structural design, innovative construction technologies, smart and self-sensing cementitious materials, and the translation of research into real-world applications.As Singapore continues its journey towards a more sustainable, productive and resilient built environment, we believe that close collaboration among government agencies, industry, academia and professional institutions is increasingly important. ACI-SC remains committed to supporting this collective effort through technical knowledge sharing, professional development and international collaboration.The seminar is expected to feature 12 invited presentations from leading academics and industry professionals from Singapore and the region, organised under four key themes:1. Low-Carbon Materials & Sustainable Concrete Solutions2. Advanced Reinforcement & High-Performance Fibre Concrete3. Resilient Structures: From Research to Real-World Adoption4.Smart Technologies & the Future Built Environment

Certificate In Concrete Technology (21th Run)
2026-11-26 09:00 - 18:00
The course is based on the new SS EN 206 and its compulsory standards SS 544-1 & 2. It gives interpretation of these standards and provides guidance to the production and conformity control of concrete. The course is a continuing education and training programme for engineers and supervisors who are involved in the concrete industry.

The course will be particularly beneficial for technical personnel working in concrete production and at the construction sites. Developers or design office personnel who wish to understand the new concrete standards or to acquire specialised knowledge in concrete technology will also find this course useful.

The course for this batch will be conducted virtually via Zoom.
