Construction Institute (CI)
of the American Society of Civil Engineers
Sacramento Section

Given the fragmented nature of the construction industry, CI was founded by ASCE National on the hypothesis that a need for cross cutting networking and technical exchange exists. CI was established to provide a collaborative forum for every participant in the construction process and is organized into seven Directorates - Construction, Education & Research, Engineering, Equipment, Materials, Owners, and Services - providing an immediate focus area for every interest within the industry. Each Directorate is governed by an Executive Committee that establishes the Directorate's mission, goals, and objectives based upon industry needs and the overall direction of the Institute. Cross cutting technical committees provide input and develop technical products, including publications, conferences, sessions, and policy decisions that satisfy the needs of the industry.
