EFFC/DFI Tremie Guide - Important survey We are now preparing the next edition of the EFFC/DFI Tremie Guide. When it was launched at the end of 2015 it provided the first formal update to site practices and acceptance criteria for the testing of concrete for decades.    Now we would like to understand how well used it is and how useful contractors find it so that we can continue to support the industry in eliminating issues that can arise from concrete that is not compliant with our criteria.    Please take a moment to fill out our survey using the link below and share it with anyone else who can inform our understanding. https://lnkd.in/ebsUXkSQ

Why did NCARB create the new Competency Standard for Architects? 🤔 As NCARB works to envision the future of licensure, it is essential that our programs share a core expectation of what competency looks like at the point of initial licensure. The NCARB Competency Standard for Architects provides that foundation and lays the groundwork for a flexible, accessible path to licensure. Learn more about how (and why) NCARB was able to develop the new standard—with input from thousands of practicing architects and our volunteer Competency Task Force—and how you can stay in the loop with upcoming changes » https://lnkd.in/eK9UdZqG
