Of all the buzzwords floating around the concrete industry related to sustainability, the most popular right now is "low carbon concrete;" but what does it actually mean? Trying to determine if your concrete mixture is “low carbon” can be a tricky task that many of us aren’t ready to tackle. The American Concrete Institute is poised to release new model code language from Code Committee 323 – Low Carbon Concrete sometime this year. Therefore, understanding what low-carbon concrete is, how to make it, and how to meet policy and code requirements is an important task for all members of the concrete industry.

Table of Contents:

1. Define the concept of low carbon concrete.

2. Discuss the requirements of the upcoming ACI Code 323.

3. Describe the type of documentation that will be needed to show compliance with Code 323.
