FIBER REINFORCED CONCRETE BOWLING BALL REGIONAL COMPETITION

ACI's internationally recognized student competitions, typically offered in cooperation with the ACI Student Activities Committee, give students the opportunity to participate in interesting and educational concrete projects. The Minnesota Concrete Council, a Local Chapter of ACI, will hold a regional FRC Bowling Ball competition.

 

Objectives: The objective of both competitions is to demonstrate the behavior of fiber reinforcement within concrete, to gain experience in forming and fabricating a fiber-reinforced concrete element, and to encourage creativity with compliance in engineering design and analysis.  

 

Competition: The ACI 2024 FRC Bowling Ball rules are below. The Chapter rules are subject to change based on the number of teams who participate. 

The Rules are here.

Prizes:

First ($500), and second ($250) place prizes will be awarded to the highest scoring student teams. MCC Member and Student winning teams will each receive a medal and a certificate of recognition. Further recognition will be given on MCC’s social media and e-blast communications.
