Indian Concrete Institute (ICI) is the national organisation of engineering professionals, employed in concrete construction and associated research in India. It was founded in 1982 in Chennai following a resolution in the International Seminar and Exhibition on ‘Modernization of Concrete Practices’ organised jointly by the Structural Engineering Research Centre (SERC) and Anna University.[2]
The ICI imparts training to working professionals in changing technologies in concrete constructions, promote research work in concrete technologies, publish journals on research finding, newer technologies, and solution for practical problems, collaborate with agencies employed in concrete construction, research and associated manufacturers for better adoption of the technology by working professionals.[2][3]

Concrete canoe Project... Subtitle by suman and syam This is the initial mould/ form-work Batch preparation Preparing plates for placing concrete. The plates will provide uniform density of concrete and uniform thickness.. The plates are made by placing concrete in a square ring made of square steel rod. This plate is kept on a rubber sheet for easy lifting..</i> The casting started from one of the corner... The glass fibre mesh has been cut... ...after some part of the first layer finished, the fibre mesh was placed... Checking how the mesh should be placed on the other parts... Plates... After the mesh is placed.... ...concrete is spread over it.. Then we spread it with our hands... Spread in such a way, that the mesh integrate with the 1st layer... Extend the 2nd layer... This sample was bit dry, so it cracked... REMEDY Any joint or crack is diagonally sliced... ...then it is planed CHAKRADHAR..the enthu candidate Vikas( the video editor) is cancelling his dates... Every one is doing wow... The project head is putting fundaes... is is the way we do compaction Shruthi: "Ameen, what will you get for lunch? I am hungry already!" Chaitanya: "I' am not hungry nor m I interested." Treating the joints!!! Sometimes we sprinkle cement paste Removing the rubber sheet from the placed plate Smothen the surface using planar . The diagonal cuts... Time stamp...its 2pm!!! The sun has set, we are half done. Close-ups... Work pacing up!!! . Syam & Udheep @ Work.. Vikas @ Work... mixing dry mix!!! 2/3rd is over!! BATCHING DEPARTMENT... 2 hobart mixer at the site... Special Apperance: Pillai sir!! First Layer : other end... Oh..they are compacting on the mould also... don't try that, it will leav e uneven impression after curing.. It is very difficult to maintain equal thickness at corners.. ...they are zones of high stress, 'coz of sudden slope change in shape.. So...be careful So much grooming... Chakradhar and Shruthi discussing how to cut the mesh! Finally......!! There is the Relief... Timestamp: 1am You need an excavator Dig the pond... size as you desire!!! Laminate the pit using Trapauline sheet. & Fill the pond The first dive Will it float??? Preparing smooth landing Wow its floating!!! Greatest relief... Legends on TEST DRIVE.. THE CONCRETE CANOE TEAM
