    UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. – Aleksandra Radlińska, assistant professor of civil engineering at


    Penn State, was recently named chair of the Concrete Research Council (CRC) for the American
    Concrete Institute (ACI).

    ACI, founded in 1904, offers educational and training programs, certification programs,
    technical resources and more to ensure the advancement of concrete knowledge. The CRC assists
    ACI’s initiatives by developing and assisting in the growth of the industry. This is completed
    through research projects that are designed to expand the knowledge and sustainability of
    concrete materials, construction and structures in coordination with ACI committees.

    As chair of the CRC, Radlińska said her main responsibility will be to help the CRC fulfill its
    mission to advance concrete knowledge. She also hopes the CRC is able to reinforce its
    increasing importance in the funding arena under her leadership, so people know that research
    that is industry-applicable can go through the ACI, which, in turn, can help advance and boost
    the industry.

    “There has been limited research funding coming from the industry over the last decade or so in
    the U.S.,” Radlińska said. “Hopefully the industry will realize the impact of research findings
    and will become more and more inclined to team up with ACI and provide researchers with
    additional resources for funding bigger awards and more research projects.”

    Radlińska will serve as chair of the CRC for a three-year period. Prior to being elected as chair
    of the CRC, Radlińska served as chair of the ACI 123 – Research and Current Developments
    Committee for six years. As chair of the ACI 123, Radlińska was responsible for providing
    updates on trends in research, technology and other topics related to concrete and sharing this
    information at ACI conventions.

    “I have been a member of ACI since pretty much the beginning of my career,” Radlińska said.
    “So, this has been an ongoing and ever exciting involvement.”
