TO: ACI Board Committee Chairs

FROM: Bill Rushing, Chair, Strategic Plan Task Group

DATE: September 19, 2013

SUBJECT: ACI’s New Strategic Plan

I am pleased to announce that the ACI Board has approved a new Strategic Plan for the Institute. This plan is the result of the work done at the Strategic Plan Workshop this summer which was attended by many of you, along with the members of ACI’s Board. Please make your committee members aware of the new plan and include it as a topic of discussion at your meeting in Phoenix. A member of the Strategic Plan Task Group will visit your committee meeting to give a brief presentation on the new plan. As a reminder, the Pre‐Board meeting in Phoenix on Thursday October 24th will be focused on the development of Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) for the new plan. In addition, the State of the Institute Report will be reviewed with a goal of creating a Performance Dashboard of information relevant to the strategic governance of ACI. Your input and that of your committee is vital to this process. Please use the forms on the following pages to submit your ideas around Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) for the newly approved ACI Strategic Plan. Submit to me no later than October 1, 2013. As you work, please keep in mind these should be the metrics by which the Board of Direction will measure the Institute’s performance against the strategic plan. They are not intended to be a list of ‘how to’ steps for achieving each outcome. Nor are KPI’s intended to measure busyness. They are intended to measure performance toward specific outcomes. As you craft your ideas, please focus on metrics that ‘prove’ outcomes, not activity. KPI’s may be either quantitative or qualitative. Either way, we must fight the tendency of boards to default to measures that are ‘easy’ to articulate. In fact, some of the work that our strategic plan calls us to do is complex and will require very challenging forms of assessment. Often it will require more than a single KPI to assess performance of a particularly complex outcome. So, think about what combinations of KPIs are needed for any one objective. Put differently, please consider this question as you draft KPI’s: ‘what metric(s) will TRULY demonstrate the outcomes we seek?’ In some cases, a KPI will call for establishment of a process, program, or practice. But remember, your task here is not to prescribe the list of activities. Rather, your task is to articulate the outcomes the Board of Direction needs to see to know that the Institute is making progress toward its strategic priorities. You will see some content inserted in the KPI section of the Engagement section. This is intended to provide examples of what we MIGHT consider. We are NOT suggesting these are the final outcomes for this section. They are simply examples. Again, please submit your KPI input no later than October 1, 2013. The Strategic Plan Task Group will work with your submissions to create a comprehensive proposal for your consideration in Phoenix.

State of the Institute 2012 Dear ACI Board, Board Committee Chairs, and Board Committee Members,

We are pleased to present the 2012 State of the Institute Report. This report provides an overview of the health of the Institute as well as impacts and trends associated with the Institute’s key activities and programs. This report is compiled for you, the adminis- trative leaders of the Institute, and reflects the performance of programs under your purview and impacts of investments under your stewardship.

A few highlights to note:

The Institute remains financially sound. Net income increased 58% over budget with no increase in membership dues and publication costs—the fourth year the Institute held prices in recognition of the continued sluggish economy impacting many of our members and customers.

Membership engagement remains strong. The Spring 2012 Convention in Dallas hosted by the Northeast Texas Chapter drew 1,750 attendees—the second highest of any convention—followed by a new attendance record for a Fall convention of 1,680 attendees at the Fall 2012 Convention in Toronto hosted by the ACI Ontario Chapter.

The Institute’s technical, educational, and certification efforts continue to promulgate new products and services, and meet the needs of our membership and customers. Technical Committee 562 introduced 562-13, Code Requirements for Evaluation, Repair, and Rehabilitation of Concrete Buildings (ACI 562-13) and Commentary, the first material-specific repair code in the United States. Education expanded its reach threefold from 2009 to 2012. And, Certification reports 25,000 exams were administered in 2012.

In closing, we recognize and express great appreciation to Kenneth C. Hover and James K. Wight, the 88th and 89th Presidents of the Institute. Under their leadership, we achieved these successful outcomes in 2012. And, we thank each of you for your contributions to these successes, as well as your leadership preparing the Institute for the future.

Publications & Product Sales / 43 Education

In 2012, the total number of ACI seminars presented was similar to the previous year. As seen in 2011, there were a limited number of seminars presented for the FHWA Cooperative Agreement. During the spring public seminar season, the main topic presented was the 318-11 Building Code Seminar cosponsored by PCA. Attendance at the ACI 318 seminars was high, at almost one-and-a-half times the average attendance for the various topics presented in the spring and fall public seminar seasons. A new topic for the fall public seminars was “Adhesive Anchors: Their Behavior and Code Design Requirements”; this was well-received.

Education publication sales rose slightly compared to the previous year, but remained significantly less than their peak in 2007. The vast majority of the publication sales are split between the Contractor’s Guide to Quality Concrete Construction and Slabs-on-Ground. A large portion of the Slabs-on-Ground sales come as part of the Flatwork Finisher Certification Program workbook.

At the end of 2012, the ACI eLearning program consisted of 17 eLearning courses in six categories. Access to 504 courses was sold throughout the year.

Nine new courses and five Spanish Language versions were added to the ACI Online CEU program. Total course registrations were up approximately 23% compared to the previous year.

Roughly 50 hours of technical presentations from the ACI conventions were recorded and made available on the ACI website for free viewing during 2012. The Web Sessions program registered approximately 21,000 hits during the year. Web sessions have been posted on YouTube since April 2012 to enable viewing on Apple devices and to reach people searching YouTube.

Approximately 1100 continuing education certificates for attending ACI Convention sessions were issued in 2012.

Conventions / 61 Historical Highlights—The Last Decade

Cooperation with concrete-related organizations in other nations enhanced with International Partner Agreement Program. Landmark Series of papers published. Sixth 2003 International Conference covered seismic bridge design. The second edition of the Concrete Repair Manual published jointly by ACI, the International Concrete Repair Institute (ICRI), Building Research Establishment (UK), and The Concrete Society (UK). The centennial celebration was a year-long event. Highlights included the publication of the ACI History Book, Concrete—A Pictorial Celebration, and the Landmark Series featured in Concrete International. Centennial conferences were held in India, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, and Paris. The spring convention included a special centennial dinner with the fall convention holding an expanded Concrete Mixer. ACI continued its international thrust with presidential visits to Japan and China. Two meetings were held 2004 with RILEM. Meetings were also held with fib, The Concrete Centre, The British Cement Association, The Concrete Society, and The Concrete Information Limited in Britain. A very successful workshop on Concrete in the Americas was held in conjunction with the Washington, DC, convention. Thirteen international concrete-related societies signed an International Partner Agreement. Increased cooperation and collaboration with concrete-related societies highlighted ACI’s activities in 2005. Eight of our 14 International Partners attended and participated at the ACI convention in New York. Cooperative efforts with our International Partners were enhanced by the development and completion of a commerce site on ACI’s Web site. ACI 318 Chair James Wight was invited by fib to become a member of the fib Model Code Committees, thereby strengthening our relationship with fib. Activities of ISO TC/ 71 continue to grow under ACI’s leadership. ACI conducted a very successful International Roundtable in Bangkok, Thailand, with 10 chapters from Europe, the Middle East, and 2005 Asia in attendance. Joint seminars with PCA and PCI were held. The Board of Direction approved cooperative efforts with ICRI including the development of a repair code. ACI and ASCC continue to work closely on several projects. Sales of ACI 318-05 were strong, attendance at educational seminars increased, and certification activities were at an all-time high. The first official Spanish translation of 318 was published shortly after 318-05 was published. A plan to enhance member benefits was approved by the Board of Direction; these enhancements were introduced in 2007. Due to the massive damage from Hurricane Katrina, the fall 2005 convention was relocated from New Orleans to Kansas City. The original meeting schedule was maintained and there was no reduction in attendance. Considerable effort was spent on developing programs and products that will allow ACI to remain a strong, viable organization in the future. The new member benefits approved by the Board of Direction in 2005 were developed, including the Concrete Knowledge Center and the Continuing Education Units program for members. Work began on a Concrete Repair Code, and the revisions to ACI 301 continued. Free electronic student membership was introduced, and acceptance exceeded expectations. ConREF was reorganized and 2006 renamed the ACI Foundation. The Foundation’s Student Fellowship Program was reorganized to provide greater donor recognition and increase the number of student fellowships. Led by the SDC, ACI’s involvement in sustainability increased closer relationships with the U.S. Green Building Council and the Green Building Initiative. ACI continued to outreach to domestic and international concrete-related societies in an effort to improve coordination, cooperation, and collaboration worldwide. The new member benefits, approved by the Board in 2005 and developed during 2006, were introduced. These benefits were well received and the paid ACI membership increased during 2007. ACI’s involvement in sustainability continues to be lead by the SDC, increasing the industry’s awareness of the SDC. The Marketing Plan was finalized and approved by the Board of Direction. Additionally, a draft Strategic Plan was developed and circulated to membership for comment. ACI switched from a Defined Benefit 2007 Plan to a Defined Contribution Plan and the new Plan was well received by the employees. The 4th International Workshop on Concrete in the Americas was conducted at the Atlanta convention and highlighted presentations by 10 young practicing engineers. Additionally, the Advisory Committee for Young Members continues to look for ways of making young members more aware of opportunities for committee involvement. ACI and ASCE cosponsored the winners of the U.S. Concrete Canoe Races participation in the Concrete Canoe Races in The Netherlands. The U.S. team did exceptionally well and the event provided international exposure to both ACI and ASCE. ACI’s membership grew for the fourth year in a row, including a 20% growth in the number of Sustaining members. ACI’s e-student membership continues to exceed expectations with 4,787 student members; of which approximately 30% are international. The reorganization of 318 began in 2008 and considerable staff effort was provided to support Committee 318, while maintaining technical support for TAC and other technical committees. In early 2008 the Spanish versions of 318-08 and 301-05 were also introduced. A series of seminars on 318S-08 was held throughout Latin America. Additionally, the Concrete in Americas Workshop was held at the 2008 convention. ACI’s eLearning program, in 2008 cooperation with Elsevier, Inc., was developed. This program will give ACI its first international educational program and was officially launched in early 2009. In response to requests received from our International Partners, a portal for research papers was developed. It is anticipated that ACI’s 18 International Partners will participate in this program; providing a research portal that will include information from concrete-related societies worldwide. ACI’s subsidiary Creative Association Management (CAM) negotiated a contract for the management of the Post Tensioning Institute’s (PTI) operations. The contract was finalized and PTI operations were transferred to CAM in February 2009. ACI contributed $3M to the ACI Foundation to support the Foundation and its three councils.

62 \ Historical Highlights Historical Highlights—The Last Decade, cont’d

Early implementation of ACI’s austerity program allowed us to remain financially stable without reducing benefits to members or customers. A loyalty program was introduced in March that provided long-term members (10 years or more) and who became unemployed with a one year free membership. ACI continued to develop new products and services during 2009. We took a leadership role in the Concrete Sustainability Initiative (JSI). ACI subsidiary Creative 2009 Association Management established a publishing division, US Green Concrete Council, that began working on two publications addressing sustainability. Work began on electronic tools to support ACI publications. The reorganization of 318 required considerable staff effort and a major revitalization of our educational programs began in the fall. The program to certify adhesive anchor installers is being expedited. ACI continues to reach out internationally and the number of International Partners continues to grow. ACI’s student membership increased to 5,201 and approximately 50% reside outside the U.S. Significant changes occurred in the Institute’s staff and governance leadership. In June, Bill Tolley retired as Executive Vice President after 35 years of service to the Institute. In July, Ron Burg, a long-time active member of the Institute, took over as ACI’s fifth Executive Vice President. Dick Stehly’s term as ACI’s President was tragically cut short by his passing in September. As provided by ACI bylaws, Ken Hover, First Vice President, immediately became the Institute’s President. The ACI Board acted quickly to fill other vacancies created by Stehly’s passing. ACI staff and governance continued to focus on the goals and objectives outlined by Stehly, including active participation in the Concrete Joint Sustainability Initiative (JSI), international outreach, reorganization of the Building Code (ACI 318), and reorganization and revitalization of our education programs. 2010 Some specific program highlights include continued on-time development of the 318-11 Building Code, transfer of the eLearning program to a new provider and the opening of a new eLearning Web site, accelerated development of an Adhesive Anchor Installer certification program, and initiation of talks to begin certification operations in China. The spring convention held in Chicago, IL, set a record for attendance, while the fall convention in Pittsburgh, PA drew over 1468 attendees. In spite of the still sluggish economy, ACI’s financial condition remained strong with net positive income for the year and significant growth in reserve funds. The strong performance of reserve funds allowed the ACI Foundation to pay out previously planned contributions to the Strategic Development Council, the Scholarship Council, and the Concrete Research Council from ACI’s $3M endowment fund to the ACI Foundation. In 2011, the Institute continued to focus on activities that were in keeping with its mission of “providing knowledge for the best use of concrete” and supporting the Institute’s vision of “being universally recognized for its comprehensive knowledge, guidance, and influence regarding concrete and its application.” Key among these activities include the development of a code addressing the repair of existing concrete structures, the roll-out of the Adhesive Anchor Installer Certification program, making over 110 presentations 2011 from ACI convention sessions available for viewing online through our Web Sessions program, and adding over 300 new abstracts to our Web-based International Research Portal from 14 International Partners. A new program was developed with the Concrete Institute of Australia to offer ACI membership benefits to CIA members who opted to participate in a joint membership program. Member participation at conventions remained strong and vibrant with excellent attendance at the spring convention in Tampa, FL, and fall convention in Cincinnati, OH. The Institute updated its Strategic Plan with the changes accepted by the Board in March of 2012. Some of the revisions include editing of the Vision Statement to emphasize ACI’s collaborative position in working with industry partners worldwide, a focused effort on Building Information Modeling (BIM), and a more comprehensive approach in communicating with members, chapters, and customers. Technical committees continued work on many documents, including the update of the Structural Building Code (ACI 318) and development of a new Concrete Repair Code (ACI 562). The reach of ACI educational products — including convention certificates issued, Web Session visits, eLearning course registrations, CEU course registrations, number of seminar attendees, and educational documents sold — has increased threefold from 2009 to 2012. ACI’s certification 2012 programs continue to perform well and demand for certification increased worldwide. Certification activity in 2012 was 6% higher than in 2011 with over 25,000 exams administered. In July, a two-day ‘summit’ was convened at ACI Headquarters to review the various facets of ACI’s international activities, and explore potential goals and activities for ACI on an international basis. The summit, which included 15 ACI members and staff who represented all facets of ACI activities and geographic areas, developed a list of follow-up action items, including formation of six task groups to provide insight into ACI’s role worldwide, and actions that will implement ACI’s strategic plan on an international basis.

International Publication Series IPS-1

Essential Requirements for Reinforced Concrete Buildings

(For Buildings of Limited Size and Height,

based on ACI 318-02)

U. S. Customary Units 2002 Edition

There are numerous organizations around the world that develop information on all aspects of concrete technology, design, construction, and repair. As a service to our members and other concrete professionals, ACI International presents its International Publication Series.

The ACI International Publication Series is intended for use by individuals who are competent to evaluate the significance and limitations of its content and recommendations and who will accept responsibility for the application of the material it contains. The American Concrete Institute, the Instituto Colombiano de Normas Técnicas y Certificación, and the Asociación Colombiana de Ingeniería Sísmica disclaim any and all responsibility for the content. These institutions shall not be liable for any loss or damage arising there from. The American Concrete Institute’s Engineering Staff will review and take appropriate action on all comments and suggestions received. Members and nonmembers of the Institute are encouraged to assist in enhancing the accuracy and usefulness of ACI documents.

IP-001 was produced by a joint technical committee of the Instituto Colombiano de Normas Técnicas y Certificación (ICONTEC) and the Asociación Colombiana de Ingeniería Sísmica (AIS) that drafted the information contained in it. This document was drafted in both English and Spanish, and in SI and US Customary units. During the drafting process, suggestions for improvement were received from members of ACI, ICONTEC, AIS, and other international technical organizations. The American Concrete Institute has not performed a review following procedures of the Technical Activities Committee (TAC) and has not adopted or approved this information. This is the first publication of the English version; a Spanish translation is available through ICONTEC.

ACI Journal Manuscript Review Process

The goals of the ACI Journal manuscript review process is to maintain the high quality and value of published manuscripts, and to minimize the time to publication. The Manuscript Review Committee (MRC), led by an ACI staff Managing Editor, manages the review process.

Manuscripts submitted for publication to the ACI Structural Journal and the ACI Materials Journal are given a preliminary review by the MRC. Manuscripts that don’t conform to ACI procedures, style, or have poor writing quality are returned to the authors.

The MRC selects several peer reviewers from ACI’s internationally based database of experts in the manuscript’s field. Efforts are made to avoid reviewer conflict of interest. The manuscript, its evaluation, and the identity of the reviewers are held in confidence.

A minimum of three reviews are needed for the MRC to evaluate a manuscript. Review comments are sent to the author with the decision. The MRC decision can be: 1) Manuscript Accepted 2) Manuscript Declined in Present Form 3) Manuscript Declined. For a “Manuscript Declined in Present Form,” the author is encouraged to improve the manuscript based on the review comments and resubmit for a second review.

The MRC decides in which Journal a manuscript is published, with consideration for the recommendations from reviewers and the authors' initial request for publication venue.

A formal appeal of a “Declined” decision is made in writing to the Managing Editor. The Managing Editor will evaluate the review process and either uphold the initial decision or change the decision to “Manuscript Declined in Present Form.” A further appeal of the Managing Editor’s decision to decline a manuscript is made in writing to TAC. TAC is the final reviewing body for manuscript decisions within ACI.

Manuscripts submitted for publication in Concrete International are given a preliminary review by an ACI staff committee responsible for selecting the reviewers, the review method, or both. This recommendation is not subject to further review. Appeal of a decision not to publish a manuscript in Concrete International should be made to the Editor-in-Chief of Concrete International. 2013 TCM

Below is an example of an outline with the required 7.5.4.3 Document not approved sections for ACI guides and reports. If the document is not approved by TAC, the committee is usually expected to revise, reballot, and resubmit (commonly called “3R”) the document to TAC. The decision not to approve is usually the result of major technical deficiencies in the document. Therefore, TAC expects a comprehensive effort by the committee before the document is resubmitted. When a document is not approved, the TAC RG will indi- cate what they believe is necessary to revise the document. Although TAC expects the committee to address issues raised during the TAC review when revising the document, the committee is not expected to respond individually to each review comment.
