ACI Chapter presents

ACI Chapter Competes in Concrete Solutions Competition

UDC-American Concrete Institute Student Chapter participated in the competition for Concrete Solutions Competition organized by American Concrete Institute (ACI). This competition is the first ACI-wide competition the student chapter participated in since it is established in the school year of 2019-2020. The UDC team placed 11th in the competition.

The Concrete Solutions Competition is student competition that was hosted in Sunday, October 25, during the ACI 2020 Virtual National Convention. The student team demonstrated how their use of concrete could impact the world at large. The UDC student team proposed an innovative business model that offers 3D printing as a service for the concrete industry.

2020-4-17 to 4-27 Senior Project Capstone Presentations April 2020

Presentations will be Webex meetings and will be recorded.

Senior Capstone Projects represent the culmination of the educational experience, integrating the classroom with real world problems. The students handle open-ended engineering and computational problems whose solutions require a synthesis of engineering knowledge, computational analysis, creativity, market needs, safety and esthetics. Projects are supervised by instructors and industry mentors.

Please see the schedule and join the webex meeting as scheduled.
