About ACF
Organization
With the rapid development of countries in the Asian and neighboring region
in recent decades, infrastructure development is at the hub of economic
and engineering activities. There is a growing sense of co-operation between
these countries particularly in the development and construction sectors.
These involve the sharing of expertise and experience. Concrete is the
single most common material being used in these constructions. The social,
cultural, environmental and technological background of these countries,
though diverse, is different from that of their western counterparts. Therefore,
it is thought expedient to formulate a gathering organization for discussion
and information sharing of research, design, construction and maintenance
of concrete structures commensurate with the needs, practices and aspirations
of these countries. A federation is now formed, with representatives of
countries in the Asian and neighboring region, entrusted with the task
of preparation and maintenance of concrete structures as well as provisions
of services to the society through concrete structures.
Objectives
Thee objectives of the Federation shall be to promote understanding of
concrete structures and services to the society through concrete structures
in countries in the Asia and neighboring region through:
Scope of Activities
The scope of activities of the Federation shall encompass all aspects of
structural concrete engineering including design, construction, materials,
monitoring and inspection, testing, preservation, production of concrete
elements, exchange transfer of concrete technology, rehabilitation, and
demolition of concrete structures taking into consideration the technological,
social, economical, environmental, aesthetic and cultural aspects of countries
in the Asian and neighboring region.
