Websites
American Concrete Institute (ACI)
The ACI promotes the education certification of concrete practitioners, and it leads in the development of standards in concrete design, construction, maintenance, and repair. The ACI website provides information on and applications for internships, competitions, and scholarships, and it includes a network of faculty willing to help students find answers to research and scholarship questions. The site also includes information on various certification programs, upcoming conferences, and seminars.
National Asphalt Pavement Association (NAPA)
NAPA is an association of hot-mix asphalt producers and pavement contractors. The NAPA website includes information on scholarships and internships, workzone safety, and skills assessments for asphalt workers. It also includes educational information about the asphalt industry, asphalt plants, asphalt careers, and links to research reports.
Free access to over 700 technical videos of presentations from ACI and ICRI conventions that cover the repair, maintenance and upgrade of concrete. The site requires free registration and RealOne Player (RealPlayer 8 or better) to watch the real-time, streaming videos.
