Annual Convention PosterEvery annual convention is promoted by a creative poster designed on given theme. This poster reflects the enthusiasm of the various sponsoring chapters toward the Annual Convention.

JCI is working to expand the way for new possibilities in concrete engineering through the mutual understanding and cooperation of all its members.

JCI is working to expand the way for new possibilities in concrete engineering through the mutual understanding and cooperation of all its members.

JCI actively conducts studies and research on

concrete every year. Study and research themes are

annually solicited from members and selected

through an impartial deliberation process by the JCI

Research Committee. Research findings are either

released in JCI journals or committee reports and/or

announced at reporting sessions.

JCI publishes monthly Concrete Journal and

presents a multifaceted range of information

including commentaries, technical reports,

construction records, and international information

on a regular basis. Our three annual special issues

have been met with a favorable reception for their

topical themes covering various perspectives.

Concrete Research and Technology and ACT

(Journal of Advanced Concrete Technology) are

posted on the website of “Japan Science and

Technology Information Aggregator, Electronic”

(J-STAGE) at the same time that they are published

for uncharged access. The Japan Concrete Institute have published

guidelines such as "Practical Guideline for

Investigation, Repair and Strengthening of Cracked

Concrete Structures", "Guidelines for Control of

Cracking of Mass Concrete" and "Guidelines for

Assessment of Existing Concrete Structures, and

books like "Fundamentals of Concrete

Technology", "Concrete Diagnosis Techniques"

and "JCI Standards", based on the results of the

activities of its various kinds of committees.

JCI awards include the Honorary Membership Award,

Lifetime Membership Award, JCI Fellow, the Japan

Concrete Institute Awards (Best Paper Award,

Technology Award, Encouragement Award, Work

Award, and Meritorious Deed Award), and the Annual

Paper Encouragement Award, which is presented to

outstanding young speakers by the Annual

Convention Planning Committee. The Honorary

Member Award and various Concrete Institute Awards

conferment ceremony is held as a regular event

following the ordinary general meeting of JCI, and the

Annual Paper Encouragement Award is conferred at

the closing ceremony of the JCI Annual Convention.

Additionally, we are implementing a grant project to

provide support for conducting research on superior

concrete engineering and for the participation fees

for international conferences for presenting papers.

JCI, as an organization that promotes concrete science

and technology, conducts investigative research on a

wide range of subjects including concrete materials

and production, the design, construction, and

management of concrete structures, and new concrete

technologies, through the mutual understanding and

cooperation of all its members, and works to widely

disseminate findings.

Since 1979, JCI has been holding an Annual

Convention once a year (over three days), which is

attended by concrete researchers and engineers

from various fields, giving them the opportunity

for lively exchanges of information through

reports on research findings, question-and-answer

sessions, and so on.

Symposiums and seminars on specific

concrete-related research themes are held to

coincide with the publication of Research

Committee reports, offering a forum for research

presentations and discussions for participants,

regardless of whether they are JCI members.

Concrete technology seminars are held every year

in major cities across Japan for the purpose of

spreading concrete technology, teaching new

techniques, and fostering human resources.

JCI’s Wide-Ranging Activities—1

JCI Annual Convention

The JCI Annual Convention in three absorbing days filled with

cutting-edge technical and scientific information on concrete.

This annual convention, which was launched in 1979 and will

be held for the 39th time this year, provides a wealth of

information mainly through annual seminars and events such

as Concrete Techno Plaza and Ready-Mixed Concrete Seminar,

as well as special lectures. The three-day program features a

range of activities related to materials, structure, performance,

diagnosis and the environment, and research presentations and

exhibits concerning the latest concretes. It also features original

events organized by the various JCI chapters that involve the

participation of residents, making the convention a festival of

concrete that offers an interesting combination of enjoyable

and serious events. All People involved with concrete are

welcome.

Ready-Mixed Concrete Seminar

The Ready-Mixed Concrete Seminar introduces various techniques and studies for better ready-mixed concrete production. Every time it is held, this seminar attracts a large audience.

Concrete Techno PlazaThis event offers a venue for the many diverse companies that support concrete technology, including cement, admixture, and machinery manufactures, general contractors , and design consultants, to exhibit their latest technologies and products.

The importance of adequately protecting and maintaining the enormous

stock of concrete structures built over more than half a century will only

increase as time passes. To ensure that this need can be met, JCI has been

promoting the systematization of engineering knowledge in new fields such

as the diagnosis, maintenance, and repair of existing concrete structures,

and along with the publication of Concrete Diagnostic Techniques, a

textbook for authorized concrete diagnosis & maintenance engineer

workshops, established the Concrete Diagnosis & Maintenance Engineer

Certification System in 2001. Since then it has been administering

qualification tests for concrete diagnosis & maintenance workshop

graduates (who are eligible to take the qualification test within 2 years of

graduating), producing over 12,300 certified Authorized Concrete Diagnosis

& Maintenance Engineer.

JCI established in1970 the Authorized Concrete Engineer and Authorized

Chief Concrete Engineer Certification System for the purpose of raising the

technical level of concrete engineers, and since then has been administering

qualification tests every year, certifying thus far a total of approximately

55,200 people.

The majority of the authorized concrete engineers and authorized chief

concrete engineers certified by JCI are working in various positions in

ready-mixed concrete production, product quality control, construction, and

soon, across Japan, and have earned a high level of trust as engineers with

concrete expertise gained through many years of work in their respective

fields.
