ACI Committee S806, Young Professional Activities (YPA), promotes participation of young professionals in the ACI community through an essay contest. The contest winner will receive recognition at the ACI Fall 2014 Convention in Washington, DC; registration for the convention; and a cash prize. The committee is inviting essay entries that describe how young practitioners are incorporating sustainability practices in everyday concrete structural or material design activities. Requirements of the contest include: 1. The essay must be kept to two pages in length, typed in 12-point font, with 1 in. margins, on letter-size paper; 2. Any references should be cited and the reference list included as part of the two-page document; and 3. All applicants must have been in a concrete- or construction-related industry for less than 8 years. Years spent as a full-time student studying a construction-related field do not count toward these 8 years.
