This session, sponsored by PRO: An ACI Center of Excellence for Advancing Productivity, will focus on constructability concepts for engineers that are rarely learned in formal engineering curriculum. Speakers from many facets of the concrete design and construction community will present case studies, technologies, and practices that are crucial to a new engineer’s knowledge about what makes a project constructable and how their perspective can significantly affect the success of a project.

The contents of this course include 6 recorded presentations from the ACI 2024 Spring Convention:
• Reverse Engineering: Optimizing Construction Before Design; Cary Kopczynski, CKC Structural Engineers
• Materials, Mix Proportioning & Constructability: What I Want Young Engineers to Know; Terry Harris
• A Personal Insight and Perspective of “What I Want New Engineers to Know About Constructability; Edith Gallandorm, Precast Prestressed Concrete Institute
• A Contractors Point of View; Scott Anderson, Keystone Structural Concrete
• Panel Discussion
1. Discuss constructability design concepts for industry experts.
2. Identify opportunities to improve structural designs for productivity and efficiency.
3. Recognize the importance of contractor design collaboration in producing the most efficient concrete construction possible.
4. Develop an understanding that improving construction productivity results in earlier project completions.
