Learn About Reduced Carbon Concrete and Sustainability at the Fall ACI Convention

As we fast approach the Fall 2024 ACI Concrete Convention, scheduled for November 3-6, 2024 in the city of Philadelphia, PA, USA, we are pleased to present an array of informative events centered around sustainability and lowering concrete carbon emissions. The Convention line-up shines a spotlight on the importance of sustainability in the concrete industry.

Committee meetings and some individual presentations on concrete sustainability and carbon reductions taking place during the Convention are not included in this list. Sessions hosted by NEU are linked to their description. For a comprehensive overview of all meeting and session times and locations, we encourage you to refer to your Convention app or peruse the program guide.

And while at Convention, don't forget to stop by booth 505 to visit NEU and enjoy some post-Halloween candy!
