Title: Genesis and Overview of the New ACI CODE 323: Low-Carbon Concrete
The American Concrete Institute recently published CODE 323: Low-Carbon Concrete, a first-of-its-kind model building code that covers provisions for setting carbon emissions requirements associated with cast-in-place concrete. Convening author and Chair of ACI Committee 323, Dr. Matthew P. Adams, will provide an overview of the new code. A discussion of the impetus for development of the code, and comparison of the code to existing policies and provisions for low-carbon construction materials. A review of the scope and applicability of the code, and how it may be adopted will also be presented. Finally an example set of calculations for the Code, and the required documentation, will be provided.
