Description: A wide range of policies have been developed and implemented recently to encourage the implementation of low-carbon and sustainable concrete, including the recent publication of ACI Code 323: Low-Carbon Concrete. While many people believe that technology have been the only barrier to implementation of these policies, often it is a complex web of barriers that can stall out or prevent implementation of sustainable construction. This presentation will discuss these barriers and present potential solutions for overcoming the barriers. Examples of successful policy will be shown along with potential future avenues for buy clean implementation.
