This competition offers civil engineering students a valuable hands-on opportunity to:

1. Design a concrete mix,
2. Prepare the concrete themselves,
3. Cast test cubes,
4. Cure the cubes for 28 days,
5. Transport the cubes, and
6. Witness the actual testing of their prepared cubes.

We encourage maximum participation from students—whether members of IC-ACI Student Chapters at your institution or civil engineering students from any accredited engineering colleges across India.
