ON THE COVER: San Franciscos Golden Gate Bridgea 20th-century icon that is eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Placeshas long been seen as susceptible to seismic damage. A better understanding of earthquakes, as well as the provisions of the latest codes, called for upgrading the bridge. The Golden Gate Bridge Seismic Retrofit Phase II South Approach Structures Project was carried out in a manner that minimized disruption to the thousands of vehicles that cross the bridge each day and did not materially change the aesthetics of the bridge. Technical solutions were developed to address shortcomings and provide passive resistance to seismic forces. The project is critical to preserving the Golden Gate Bridge and mobility in the Bay Area because there is a 65 percent probability that an earthquake with a magnitude of at least 6.7 will strike the region before the year 2030. As the only direct transportation link between the San Francisco peninsula and counties east of the vast Redwood Empire, the bridge carries 41 million vehicles per year. The project designer successfully met the challenge of developing a retrofit that complied with modern engineering standards and worked within the original configuration of the 70-year-old structures while preserving their distinctive architecture and enabling the bridge to carry traffic at all times during construction. The Golden Gate Bridge Seismic Retrofit Phase II South Approach Structures Project was awarded ASCEs 2007 Outstanding Civil Engineering Achievement Award. Photograph by Medioimages.

5.5

Financial Management. 5.5.1 Financial Philosophy. The Society strives to accomplish its mission, as stated in its strategic plan, while meeting the financial goals necessary to do so. The Society shall assess its resources and make spending decisions based on available funds, taking into consideration the maintenance of a prudent level of corporate infrastructure and reserves. The Society derives revenues from membership dues and sales of products and services, including publications, continuing education programs, conferences, advertising and royalties. It is important that the Society develop a balance of revenue sources and seek out new ones, so as not to become too dependent on individual sources. In order to provide funding for programs to meet the Societys goals and objectives, products and services shall be priced, where possible, so their revenue exceeds expense. At times, in meeting the Societys goals and objectives, the Society may produce products and services where the expenses exceed revenues. It is the policy of the Board of Direction that members of the Society be given the best available pricing for products and services. The Society and its affiliates shall maintain an adequate system of internal accounting controls to ensure that accounting transactions are recorded and reported accurately. The accounting policies, procedures and controls shall be documented in an accounting manual. 5.5.2 Cash and Investments. The Society maintains funds for operations and long-term investment. Excess cash shall be invested in short-term, low-risk liquid investments. From time-to-time maturities of operating fund fixed-income securities may be extended up to intermediate-term based on market conditions and the amount of funds available for investment. Earnings from operating funds shall be used as a revenue source to fund operating activities. Long-term investments (funds with five (5) year or greater time horizon) shall be invested with the assistance of an investment management firm and in accordance with an Investment Policy approved by the Board of Direction. 5.5.2.1 Investment Policy. The Societys Investment Policy shall specify asset allocations appropriate for a professional society and the type of funds within the Society (e.g., short-term investment fund, long-term investment fund, prizes and awards fund). The Investment Policy shall include the investment objectives, spending parameters and asset allocations for each

RULES OF POLICY AND PROCEDURE

59

fund, portfolio return objectives, diversification and rebalancing policies, and reporting requirements. The Investment Policy shall be developed for Board of Direction approval by the Finance Committee in consultation with the investment management firm. 5.5.3 Restricted Net Assets. Certain of the Societys assets and net assets are restricted as to use by donors and cannot be used for general operations of the Society. Restricted money shall be held in separate funds and accounted for separately. 5.5.4 Reserves Management. The target level of Reserves shall be held to maintain financial stability in the event of unforeseen catastrophic events, economic downturns, uninsured claims, or to provide seed money for important new initiatives. Reserves are not available to fund ongoing Society programs. If the expendable net assets percentage drops below the target by over five percent (5%), the Finance Committee shall present a plan to the Board of Direction to replenish expendable net assets as part of the annual budget process. If the amount of expendable net assets exceeds the target, the Finance Committee shall consider using a portion of long-term investment earnings to fund operating activities. Once the thirty-five percent (35%) reserve target is attained, then forty percent (40%) of investment earnings shall become available for operations. Once a forty percent (40%) ratio is attained, then sixty percent (60%) of investment earnings shall become available for operations. Care must be taken when allocating these earnings to operations since investment earnings may turn negative in subsequent years, thus reducing the amount available to fund future operations. 5.5.4.1 Institute Reserves. Society Institutes are each authorized to have expendable net asset balances (reserves) that are designated for their use. Their target of expendable net assets (reserves) to Institute annual expenses is the same as the overall target for the Society. When an Institutes Reserves exceed fifty percent (50%) of that Institutes fiscal years actual annual expense, the excess funds shall become part of the Societys Reserves and shall no longer be designated for Institute use. 5.5.5 Annual Operating Budget. The Society shall budget its programs and activities consistent with the Strategic Plan and the associated value propositions that the Society delivers on an ongoing basis. The Strategic Plan consists of the vision, mission, and goals; the radar screen of strategic issues; and the approved strategies to address the Board of Direction designated top priority strategic issues. Value propositions are statements that encapsulate the Societys ongoing delivery of value to members, as seen from the members point of view, giving a finer breakdown of effort than provided by the goals. The Society will strive to coordinate the strategic planning and budget processes so that decisions for strategic budgets (funding strategies that address strategic issues) and the budgeting of annual operating plans (to deliver the value propositions) can be made on a reasonable and timely basis. The Finance Committee is charged with the responsibility of preparing the Societys annual Operating Budget using Society staff and committees as resources. The Operating Budget shall be presented to the Board of Direction for their review and approval prior to the beginning of the Fiscal Year. Institute budgets, which are prepared by the individual Institutes, shall be presented to the Board of Direction for approval as well. Each year, the ongoing activities of the Society shall be evaluated by Society staff leadership, operational committees, Program Committee, Finance Committee and the Board of Direction from an operational and financial standpoint to determine whether they should be continued and at what level of expenditure. Proposed new activities shall be evaluated by Society staff leadership, Program Committee, Finance Committee and the Board of Direction to determine their appropriateness from a strategic, operational and financial standpoint. Written information about proposed new activities shall be presented with the request, including a complete description of the activity, impact on members, benefit to the Society, budget data, coordination with the Strategic Plan, and methodology for evaluating success. The Finance Committee shall present an Operating Budget without a dues increase for consideration of the Board of Direction and may also present an Operating Budget that calls for a dues increase if the proposed annual Operating Budget requires it. Operating Budgets are guides prepared in advance of the Fiscal Year and therefore are not always a precise plan for revenue and expense. Variances occur regularly for individual budget line items

60

RULES OF POLICY AND PROCEDURE due to the passage of time and evolution of plans. The Executive Director has the responsibility to manage the execution of the Operating Budget within a reasonable framework of variances and within the budgeted total change in net assets. The Finance Committee will receive a monthly budget to actual comparison with a quarterly comparison provided to the Board of Direction that includes descriptions of and reasons for significant variances. 5.5.6 Annual Capital Budget. The Finance Committee is charged with the responsibility of preparing the Societys annual Capital Budget using Society staff as its resource. The Capital Budget shall be presented to the Board of Direction for their review and approval. The Capital Budget is for the purchase of assets that have an expected useful life in excess of one (1) year and a cost in excess of the Societys capitalization limit. These assets are depreciated (charged as expense) over their estimated useful lives. 5.5.7 Unbudgeted Expenditures. During the budget year, requests may arise for additional funding for existing activities or for funding of a proposed activity. The Executive Committee shall have the authority, without prior Board of Direction approval, to approve additional or new expenditures of up to $50,000 for individual activities or purchases. The annual aggregate limit of additional and new expenditures approved as above is one percent (1%) of the annual expense budget. The Executive Committee shall report these additional expenditure authorizations to the Board of Direction at its next scheduled meeting.

QUALIFICATIONS, EXPECTATIONS, AND TRAINING OF SOCIETY DIRECTORS

This document is intended to provide guidance to ASCE members seeking to become a Society Director. It describes the required qualifications for this position, expected time commitments, expected financial resources, and the training required. An outline of the nomination process, including a list of the documents that must be submitted by each nominee, is also provided. Each nominating committee, potential candidate, and anyone soliciting potential candidates should become familiar with these qualifications, expectations, and training requirements. I. Qualifications. Society Directors include Region Directors (Geographic or Technical) and At-Large Directors. A. Geographic Region Directors. Candidates for the office of Geographic Region Director shall be voting Society members in Good Standing, shall have an Address of Record within the Region being represented, and shall have served as a Geographic Region Governor. (Note: until the Transition Plan is fully executed, the new requirement that Society (Region) Directors have previous service as Region Governors is waived; and the previous criteria that candidates for Director shall be voting Society members and shall have served as Section or Branch officer, as a Board of Governors member of an Institute, or as a member of a National Committee of the Society applies.) After serving one (1) full term, Geographic Region Directors shall be ineligible for re-election to the office of Society Director. Additionally, any person who was inducted as Society President-elect or Vice President is ineligible for re-election as a Geographic Region Director. All other former Board of Direction members who were nominated by Districts are eligible to serve. B. Technical Region Directors. Candidates for the office of Technical Region Director shall be voting Society members in Good Standing, and shall have served on an Institute Board of Governors. After serving one (1) full term, Technical Region Directors shall be ineligible for reelection to the office of Society Director.

All other former Board of Direction members who were nominated by Districts are eligible to serve. C. At-Large Directors.

After serving one (1) full term, At-Large Directors shall be ineligible for re-election to the office of Society Director. Directors of the American Society of Civil Engineers must possess many traits and abilities beyond those specified by the Bylaws and Rules of Policy and Procedure. The most noteworthy trait an ASCE Society Director should possess is that of a skilled communicator as public speaking is a requirement of the position. The Society Director must be a conduit between the Board of Direction and the Regions, committees, local units, and external organizations. Additionally, a Society Director is to be a spokesperson for the profession at the local level. The Society Director should also be able to competently participate in the planning and policy setting duties of the Board, as well as be able to understand and address the Societys goals. The Board delegates oversight responsibility for managing the Society to the Executive Committee and will concentrate on planning, setting policy, and prioritizing programs, along with allocating resources. It is essential the Society Director be able to work with ASCE staff and volunteers to accomplish the stated goals of the Society. They must be able to fulfill these functions well, and at the same time always display the highest degree of professional integrity to benefit the civil engineering profession and ASCE. A prospective Society Director should review the Official Register and visit the ASCE website. After careful study of these resources, the candidate will be prepared to offer an informed commitment to the qualifications and expectations and training requirements herein described. It is also expected that Society Directors have the appropriate support from both their family and employer. As the time commitment in this role is great, it is essential that those who have demands or expectations on the Society Directors time be fully aware of, and agreeable to, the commitment being made. 125

QUALIFICATIONS, EXPECTATIONS, AND TRAINING

In addition to carrying out any specific assignments given by the Board and/or the President, Society Directors must make a commitment of both time and financial resources. A. Time. The approximate annual time expected from each Society Director at meetings is shown below. In addition to the meeting days, a Society Director should be prepared to spend additional time in preparation for and travel to meetings. Many of these days will be over weekends, but week days will also be required. A Society Director must be able to attend all Board and applicable committee meetings to be effective and to give adequate representation. The days shown below are only an estimate and should not be considered absolute. 1st and 2nd yr 3rd yr Region Region Directors Directors (days) (days) 7 8 2 4 0 4 2 15 0 10 2 4 10 4 2 10 0 20 At-Large Directors (days) 7 2 4 0 0 2 0 5 0

Finally, the newly elected Society Director will attend Board Orientation prior to being installed. IV. Process. A. Obtain the nomination of the Region (for Region Directors) or the Board of Direction Nominating Committee (for At-Large Directors). Procedures for obtaining the required nomination are detailed in the Societys governing documents. B. Provide a written acceptance letter (stating understanding of the Qualifications, Expectations and Training of Society Directors document, willingness to serve, consent of family and employer), to the Societys Secretary prior to the March 1 due date. C. Nominees shall provide to the Secretary of ASCE no later than May 1 the required Statements for the specific office, and a current color photograph (head and shoulders only) for publication in ASCE News and on the Societys web site.

has taken a leading role in addressing infrastructure vulnerability and is developing both short- and long-term strategies to mitigate the impact of future disasters on our critical infrastructure. In January 2005, the ASCE Board of Direction approved the formation of a standing Board level Committee on Critical Infrastructure (CCI) to provide vision, guidance, and direction on all activities related to homeland security and multi-hazard protection of critical infrastructure, including planning, preparedness, and response. In addition to ensuring that the Society maintains its proactive leadership role in these key national issues, CCI also provides guidance to build coalitions that undertake activities in critical infrastructure and will assist in identifying and securing necessary resources related to critical infrastructure. CCI Vision: ASCE is a recognized leader in incorporating resilience into multihazard planning, design, preparedness, procurement, construction, operation and maintenance, mitigation, response, and recovery of critical infrastructure. CCI Mission: CCI provides insight and guidance to ASCE on its internal and external activities related to critical infrastructure. CCI identifies, influences, and facilitates ASCE critical infrastructure activities. CCI Goals: Promote awareness in ASCE and the general public regarding sensible security and critical infrastructure resilience via planning; design; preparedness; procurement; construction; operation and maintenance; and response, mitigation, and recovery from multihazard conditions Provide structure, policies, and procedures for ASCE responses to events of national and/or international significance Ensure that ASCE maintains its proactive leadership role in key national critical infrastructure issues, via internal and external coalitions, as appropriate Facilitate the development of standards, standards of practice, and guidelines to develop critical infrastructure resiliency to multihazard conditions Evaluate the need for specialty certification for engineers involved with disaster management

CCI has developed working definitions* related to critical infrastructure as follows: Critical infrastructure includes systems, facilities, and assets so vital that if destroyed or incapacitated would disrupt the security, economy, health, safety, or welfare of the public. Critical infrastructure may cross political boundaries and may be built (such as structures, energy, water, transportation, and communication systems), natural (such as surface or ground water resources), or virtual (such as cyber, electronic data, and information systems). Safety denotes a status, which is extensively free of adverse effects or is regarded as nondangerous. Security provides protection against attacks, sabotage, acts of violence, or disruption. Security concepts are constructed and used to reach the status of safety. Measures of security are effective when they prevent or mitigate expected and unexpected consequences. Sensible security is the level of protection provided through design, construction, and operation that mitigates adverse impacts to systems, facilities, and assets, in proportion to their value to society and their likelihood of being affected by natural and/or man-made events. Multihazards include significant events such as infrastructure deterioration, natural disasters, accidents, and malevolent acts. Resilience refers to the capability to prevent or protect against significant multihazard threats and incidents and to expeditiously recover and reconstitute critical services with minimum damage to public safety and health, the economy, and national security. ASCE is currently involved in a variety of critical infrastructure related activities. For additional information, contact CCI staff at cci@asce.org.

GENERAL INFORMATION The Infrastructure Security Partnership (TISP)

145

Immediately after 9/11, the US Army Corps of Engineers spearheaded the formation of The Infrastructure Security Partnership (TISP), as a public-private partnership focused on collaboration towards the improved resilience of the nations critical infrastructure against the adverse impacts of natural and man-made disasters through effective planning, design, construction, and operation. Since its creation, membership has grown to more than 100 organizations and agencies representing more than 1.5 million individuals and firms. ASCE was an active founding member and serves as the current Secretariat of TISP. As such, ASCE developed, launched, and now manages the TISP website devoted to critical infrastructure resilience issues (www.tisp.org). The comprehensive site serves as a single source of timely and relevant information and is a major gateway to multi-disciplinary, up-to-date information and resources about issues involving homeland security and critical infrastructure resilience. ASCE also serves as editor of the monthly TISP e-Newsletter. In association with TISP, ASCE has also hosted industry-wide summits to encourage collaboration on resilience for various critical infrastructure sectors including water, building systems, and transportation. The TISP Annual Conference brings together regional and national leaders to showcase the latest developments in critical infrastructure resilience. The conference features a mix of technical presentations, discussion forums, workshops, exhibits, and plenary sessions with leading industry and government experts. ASCE hosted the 1st Annual TISP Conference in conjunction with ASCEs 2002 Annual Conference & Exposition. TISP also hosts a monthly Breakfast Speaker Series, available to TISP Contributing Members and Corporate Sponsors. The TISP Breakfast Speaker Series provides networking opportunities with leading public and private sector experts discussing the latest developments related to critical infrastructure resilience. Breakfast presentations are now archived as TISP podcasts (TISPCasts) at: http://podcast.tisp.org/. For additional information on TISP, visit http://www.tisp.org. Water Infrastructure Security Enhancements (WISE) The security of our nations water infrastructure is of critical importance, particularly in the post-September 11 environment. ASCE, the American Water Works Association (AWWA), and the Water Environment Federation (WEF), with a grant from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), have developed a comprehensive three-phased program to address physical infrastructure security needs for water supply, wastewater and stormwater, and online contaminant monitoring systems. Phase I includes Interim Voluntary Guidance Documents; Phase II includes related training materials; and Phase III includes Voluntary Consensus Standards.

ASCE Archives
Mission Statement: To promote knowledge and understanding of the rich history of the American Society of Civil Engineers and the civil engineering professiontheir origins, core values, ethics, people, projects and programs. As the oldest national professional engineering society, the American Society of Civil Engineers core purpose is to advance the art, science and profession of engineering to enhance the welfare of humanity. The formal establishment of the ASCE Archives facilitates the achievement of this objective by promoting knowledge and understanding of the rich history of the civil engineering field in addition to the origins, aims, programs and goals of the Society itself. The ASCE Archives will support the vision, mission, goals and objectives of the Society as captured in the Strategic Plan. More pointedly, the ASCE Archive will further the objectives of increase[ing] the publics awareness and appreciation of the professions contributions to society and celebrat[ing] members achievements and publiciz[ing] their contributions to society. (2000 ASCE Strategic Plan).

Cybrarian Service
The Cybrarian Service was established to assist civil engineers from around the world to do their work. As a Web-based research service, anyone who can connect to the Web can request research help when they are starting a new project, researching an issue, or presenting a bid for a proposal. For civil engineers who do not have easy access to research facilities, this service provides a cost-effective alterna-

Meetings and Conferences

In the fall of each year a general business meeting, open to all members, is held during the Annual Civil Engineering Conference. The Annual Conference, which rotates throughout the United States, provides an opportunity for the presentations and meetings on topics related to management, leadership, professional development, ethics, and other areas of interest to all civil engineers. Members may attend numerous other meetings throughout the year. These include, but are not limited to: Section and Branch Meetings: local meetings where members may expand their circle of professional contacts; Younger Member Activities: local meetings which allow younger members to network with their peers; and Student Chapters and Clubs: ASCE-sponsored activities at universities to stimulate student interest in civil engineering In addition to the Annual Conference, there are Division and Institute Specialty Conferences scheduled by the technical divisions and Institutes to provide outlets of information on special interest areas. A listing of the 2008 conferences may be found on page 151. Annual Civil Engineering Conference The ASCE Annual Civil Engineering Conference is open to all ASCE members and is held in the fall of each year throughout North America. This meeting includes the ASCE Annual Business Meeting, along with pre-conference symposia, short courses and other professional development opportunities. These educational offerings provide an opportunity for presentations and meetings on topics of interest to all civil engineers. The Annual Civil Engineering Conference is managed under the authority and responsibility of the Executive Director, who is responsible for ensuring that the Annual Conference is well planned, marketed and managed so as to provide value to the attendees. The Annual Conference Chair is appointed by the ASCE Executive Committee two years in advance of the meeting. The Chair is charged with oversight of the educational program and with planning local educational program activities held in conjunction with the conference. The educational program is developed by means of subcommittee comprised of the Program Chair and volunteers. Additional subcommittees are created with oversight responsibilities for sponsorships,

GENERAL INFORMATION

151

local educational programs, etc. The committees provide the means to create an overall program which will command national and international attention and participation. Specialty Conferences Specialty Conferences are an integral part of the Societys activities. The conferences function to gather groups of professionalsboth inside and outside of the civil engineering fieldto focus on a specialty field of civil engineering or topics related to it. They are a part of the continuing professional and technical development of ASCE and Institute members. Conferences provide an opportunity for attendees to learn and exchange information with other civil engineers by attending technical sessions and expositions, participating in discussions, identifying common problems and developing solutions. Some conferences provide a written record of the sessions through the publishing of conference proceedings which extend the life of the conference by sales to non-attendees. Specialty Conferences are as varied as the membership of ASCE and the Institutes. Smaller boutique conferences or workshops are developed for small interest areas. Large congresses appeal to a broader range of the specialty and cover a wide spectrum of topics within the specialty field. No matter the size of the specialty conference, they are the instrument providing opportunities for professional networking. Managed Conferences Managed Conferences resemble a mix of a Specialty Conference and Annual Conference. Managed Conferences have a technical focus, and in some cases more than one focus, like a Specialty Conference, but they are broader in scope and larger in size like a convention. Managed Conferences typically involve more than one ASCE or Institute entity (e.g., two technical divisions) or organizations outside ASCE. Target audiences for Managed Conferences are generally broad in scope, and may include the businesses of consulting engineering, contracting, education, environmental companies, business enterprises, developers, finance, legal, public and government organizations. Managed Conferences are generally conceived and developed in a different way from a Specialty Conference or an Annual Conference, usually with much greater staff initiative. For some Managed Conferences, ASCE serves as the conference manager for an organization(s) wishing to convene a civil engineering or related conference, but not having the capability to manage the conference itself. Current Managed Conferences include: Structures Congress, EWRI (World Water Congress), GeoCongress, and the Offshore Technology Conference. Expositions It is essential for engineering professionals to keep abreast of technical developments in their fields. With science and technology rapidly changing, professional civil engineers need to inform themselves about the latest products and services to enable them to continually perform their jobs in the most efficient manner possible. Expositions are typically held in conjunction with some of ASCEs Specialty and Managed Conferences and offer civil engineers the opportunity and setting to perform this task. 2008 Conferences Information on any of the conferences listed below may be obtained by accessing the ASCE website at www.asce.org/conferences/.

The Civil Engineering Database is also available. Catalogs of publications of the Society are available from the Publications Marketing Department. Civil Engineering Civil Engineering, the Societys award-winning monthly magazine, is mailed to all members of ASCE with U.S. addresses at no separate charge. Additional print subscriptions must be ordered at the nonmember rate. An online edition is available at no charge to all members at www.asce.org. For international members to receive mailed copies, an annual air delivery service fee of $39 U.S. dollars must be paid, which also includes mailed copies of ASCE News. Delivery is timed to alternate with ASCE News. It carries news and features of current interest in the various fields of civil engineering. A wide variety of civil engineering projects and structures are described, usually illustrated by photographs and drawings. Manuscripts and other material from any civil engineer are considered, without regard to whether the contributor is a member of ASCE. Demand for space is such that only articles of

154

GENERAL INFORMATION

exceptional value to a large proportion of the profession can be accepted. Manuscripts typically range from 4,000 to 12,000 words. A set of guidelines for those submitting manuscripts is available. Manuscripts that will be presented at Society conventions are often routed to Civil Engineering for review. Independently prepared papers may be sent directly to the editor of Civil Engineering at 1801 Alexander Bell Drive, Reston, VA 20191-4400. Articles in Civil Engineering are eligible for consideration for Society prizes in accordance with the rules for the individual prizes (see Awards Section). Individual subscriptions are available to members of the Society, to members of Student Chapters, and to nonmembers. Single copies are $30.00 each. Reprints of articles may be obtained by arrangement with the Reprints Department; see the ASCE Publications Web site, http://pubs.asce.org/support/reprints. Annual volumes of Civil Engineering are available on microfilm from National Archive Publishing Company (NAPC), 300 N. Zeeb Rd., Ann Arbor, MI 48106. The magazine is indexed in the Civil Engineering Database. Information on rates and arrangements for placing advertising can be obtained from the Advertising Director at Society Headquarters. Journals of the Professional Activities Committees Three quarterly publicationsJournal of Management in Engineering, Leadership and Management in Engineering, and Journal of Professional Issues in Engineering Education and Practicepresent professional and technical problems of broad interest and implications, especially those concerned with policies and actions affecting public interests or relationships of civil engineers with other disciplines or professions and with all aspects of engineering management. They also publish significant reports by the Committee on Professional Practice and its constituent committees. Journals of the Technical Divisions, Councils, and Institutes The technical journals of the Society are the media through which individual members report their experiences and results of their studies for the advancement of their profession and for the benefit of members. Technical papers and Discussions are carefully reviewed for possible publication in one of the journals of the technical divisions, councils, and institutes. No advertising is accepted for inclusion in the technical journals, and unusual vigilance is exercised to avoid the dissemination of material that can be classified as advocating special interests. The ideal paper for a journal reports thought-provoking results of a study advancing new ideas in the planning, analysis, design, construction, or maintenance of civil engineering works, or a comprehensive state-of-the-art review for widespread discussion. The journals can be thought of as forums for the exchange of technical information by members of the Society to their common advantage. Technical notes provide a way of publishing original, practical information, preliminary or partial results of research, concisely presented research results, and innovative techniques by which to accomplish design objectives. Technical notes must meet all of the basic requirements for papers. Authors or coauthors, whether or not they are members of the Society, may submit worthwhile manuscripts for review and possible publication. Such papers may be presented at meetings of the Society, but relatively informal papers, prepared exclusively for meeting presentation, are not usually reviewed for publication in the journals. Details concerning standards of acceptance for papers are available online through the ASCE Authors Resource Center at http://pubs.asce.org/authors. The primary review of technical papers and discussions is the responsibility of the several divisions, councils, and institutes; the Societys staff is responsible for any editing necessary to produce a publication commendable in accuracy and appearance. Journals of the various divisions, councils, and institutes are published monthly, bimonthly, or quarterly. All papers published in the journals of the society are indexed each year by subject and author. A high standard of acceptance is set for papers to be included in the journals. The intent is that only those papers that deserve publication by the Society will be accepted. The maximum length of a paper is 10,000 words or word-equivalents. As an approximation, each full manuscript page of text, excluding

GENERAL INFORMATION

155

tables and figures, is equivalent to 300 words. If the 10,000-word limit cannot be met, the author must submit a letter justifying the additional length for consideration by the editor. Authors can order reprints of a journal paper using the order form supplied by the Production Department; see the ASCE Publications Web site, http://pubs.asce.org/support/reprints for a copy. Microfilms of journals are available from National Archives Publishing Company (NAPC), 300 N. Zeeb Rd., Ann Arbor, MI 48106. Subscriptions: The annual subscription rates for Society members/students and nonmembers are listed beginning on page 157. All journal subscriptions are entered on a calendar year basis. The journal rates quoted are applicable only for orders received before or during the year of publication. For prior years, subscriptions will be charged at the current years subscription rate. These prices are subject to change without notice. Included in these subscriptions will be special mailings of the divisions, councils, or institutes. Division, Council, or Institute Enrollments: Members may enroll in divisions, councils, or institutes. With these enrollments, members will receive, without charge, special mailings (such as conference announcements and division or council surveys) of each of the divisions, councils, or institutes in which they are enrolled. Convention and Conference Papers On application, in advance, by a division or an institute Executive Committee, the papers presented at national conventions and specialty conferences may be grouped in a single volume and offered for sale as a special publication. When new volumes are issued, they will be announced in Civil Engineering magazine and ASCE News. ASCE conference papers are now available online through the ASCE Research Library at www.ascelibrary.org. Available online proceedings include all ASCE conference papers published from 2001 to the present, as well as select conference proceedings back to 1996. A paid Proceedings Research Library Card subscription gains members access to the online proceedings in the Research Library. Access is through a User ID and Password. Transactions of ASCE The Transactions of ASCE provides information on selected material published in the course of one year. It contains the Presidents annual address; abstracts of papers published in journals and feature articles published in Civil Engineering magazine; absracts of books and CD-ROMs; and indexes. The Transactions also includes memoirs of deceased ASCE members. The memoirs are prepared by local sections and individuals. Official Register The Official Register, which includes authoritative Society data and statistics (excepting lists of members), is available through the ASCE Web site or through 1-800-548-ASCE for a nominal charge. Annual Report of the Board of Direction An annual report is published on the Society's Web site. The report covers such areas as technical activities, publications, professional activities, geographic services, administration, public information activities, research, and finances. It permits a quick study of the scope of Society activities, and provides an excellent means of noting progress being made in fulfilling ASCEs objective of advancement of the science and profession of engineering. By publication and wide distribution of the annual report, the Board of Direction hopes to stimulate more active participation by all members in Society affairs so that ASCE can continue to meet the professional challenges of serving people better. A summary report, including the financial statement, is included in Civil Engineering magazine, a copy of which is mailed to every member with a U.S. address and is also available online for all members. ASCE News Members with domestic U.S. addresses receive one gratis subscription to ASCE News as part of their membership. Additional subscriptions must be ordered at the nonmember rate. International members

156

GENERAL INFORMATION

receive virtual subscriptions to ASCE News online. For international members to receive mailed copies, an annual air delivery service fee of $39 U.S. dollars must be paid, which also includes mailed copies of Civil Engineering magazine. Delivery is timed to alternate with Civil Engineering magazine. ASCE News concentrates on the activities of ASCE, and those of its members, with the intent of promoting interest and participation in Society programs. In addition, the newspaper serves to promulgate information about ASCE actions and policy. Special emphasis is given to member activities, programs, and profiles. News of national interest that may affect the profession is also featured. Members are encouraged to submit material or article ideas for editorial consideration. Engineer, Owner, and Construction Related Documents Available from ASCE are contract documents/forms of agreement prepared by the Engineers Joint Contract Documents Committee and published by the American Society of Civil Engineers, the American Consulting Engineers Council, and the National Society of Professional Engineers. For immediate downloads of contract documents or to purchase a CD-ROM, visit the ASCE Publications Web site at http://pubs.asce.org/contracts. Standards In April 1980, the Board of Direction approved ASCE Rules for Standards Committees to govern the writing and maintenance of standards developed by the Society. All such standards are developed by a consensus standards process managed by the Codes and Standards Activities Committee. The consensus process includes balloting by the balanced standards committee made up of Society members and nonmembers, balloting by the membership of ASCE as a whole, and balloting by the public. All standards are updated or reaffirmed by the same process at intervals not exceeding five years. The ASCE Digital Standards Store now provides secure online delivery of select ASCE standards in an electronic format. Access is available through the ASCE Publications website at http://pubs.asce.org/books/standards. Manuals and Reports on Engineering Practice In February 1962, the Board of Direction voted to establish: A series entitled Manuals and Reports on Engineering Practice, to include the manuals published and authorized to date, future manuals of professional practice, and reports on engineering practice. All such manual or report material of the Society would have been refereed in a manner approved by the Board Publications Committee and would be bound, with applicable discussion, in books similar to past manuals. Numbering would be consecutive and would be a continuation of present manual numbers. In some cases of reports of joint committees, bypassing of journal publication may be authorized. Committee Reports Special reports prepared by the technical and professional committees of ASCE may be published as individual volumes. Approval by the appropriate division, council, or institute executive committee is required for publication. New volumes are announced in ASCE News.

Civil Engineering Database The Civil Engineering Database (CEDB) is a comprehensive and free electronic database that contains more than 150,000 bibliographic records of publications by ASCE. Abstracted records for journal papers go back to 1970. This database was created to help civil engineers and researchers search through large quantities of information and find references to articles of specific interest. Each bibliographic record comprises a variety of fields such as author, title, subject headings, and publication date. Abstracts are provided for journal papers, most conference proceedings papers, Civil Engineeering magazine feature articles, and books. The CEDB links discussions, closures, and errata to their original papers. Records also link to the ASCE Online Research Library, Proquest, and Rightslink. CEDB offers online document delivery for full-text journal papers and conference proceedings papers published since 1990. Book records are linked to the ASCE Bookstore. The CEDB also provides specific document purchasing instructions for other materials CEDB is updated monthly, adding approximately 400 new records per update.

Communications
A primary goal of the Society is to build support for the civil engineering profession through increased public awareness and understanding. A key element of the public communications effort is the generation of news stories about civil engineering and infrastructure in newspapers, magazines, online and on television and radio. In an effort to build support for infrastructure renewal and increase ASCEs profile in the public policy arena, the Society developed and released its most recent Report Card for Americas Infrastructure in March 2005. This effort received tremendous media coverage and resulted in public opinion leaders citing ASCE as an authority on infrastructure policy issues. ASCE also gains positive media coverage of the Societys technical standards, annual convention, specialty conferences, awards and events, such as the National Concrete Canoe Competition. These efforts enable the Society to tell a positive story of how civil engineers are shaping our world for the better.

A related program is the ASCE Excellence in Journalism Award, in which ASCE National and participating Sections and Branches honor outstanding news coverage of civil engineering. ASCE Communications also benefits members by providing public relations counsel and hands-on media and speech training to Sections and Branches, as well as advising individual members in their efforts to promote civil engineering. In 2007, ASCE introduced PR University and the PR Toolkit, part of a program designed to provide ASCE Sections and Branches with enhanced PR training and resources. The State Public Affairs Grant (SPAG) program was established as a resource to help Sections and Branches undertake public relations and government relations projects at the grassroots level. The goal of the program is to enhance the image of civil engineers as leaders and experts on Americas vital infrastructure systems and to encourage advocacy on behalf of issues that are important to civil engineers. In other important initiatives, ASCE promotes civil engineering through its National and International Historic Civil Engineering Landmarks program and the acclaimed Outstanding Civil Engineering Achievement award program. Civil engineers have an exciting story to tell, and these awards draw international attention to their immense accomplishments. National Engineers Week ASCE is one of the original members of the National Engineers Week Steering Committee and remains an active leader in the annual national event. ASCE served as lead society for National Engineers Week in 2002 in recognition of the Societys 150th anniversary and joined corporate chair DuPont to launch the ZOOMTM into Engineering program as a National Engineers Week legacy project. ASCE also conducts the New Faces of Civil Engineering program as part of the National Engineers Week New Faces of Engineering recognition campaign. For details, visit www.asce.org/kids/ newfaces.cfm. ASCE will again chair Engineers Week in 2010. K-12 Outreach ASCE maintains an active pre-college outreach program that informs engineers, educators and the general public about careers in civil engineering. From the training of young children in grades K-5 through high school, ASCE is committed to promoting quality, hands-on training programs for those wishing to engage pre-college audiences in engineering education. At the K-5 level, ASCEs pre-college outreach materials are designed to introduce young children to the fundamentals of science and mathematics learning using engineering design principles. At the middle school level, ASCE materials introduce engineering as an exciting career option. And at the high school level, resources highlight specific career options within the civil engineering profession. ASCE has partnered with leading educational groups, engineering associations, the National Science Foundation, the United Engineering Foundation and the highly-rated PBS network, to bring groundbreaking resources to any classroom setting. ASCE worked with PBS to develop the first-ever kids engineering series, Design Squad, which premiered during Engineers Week 2007 with ASCE as a national sponsor. For a list of available pre-college outreach materials and member training opportunities, email outreach@asce.org

ASCE Policy Documents

Any committee of ASCE may issue position papers in its name on public policy issues. On issues of national concern, ASCE, through action of its Board of Direction, has adopted policy statements, position papers, or resolutions on many subjects for which the civil engineering profession has expressed concern. This cumulative effort is intended to maintain a substantial reference for any public pronouncements or comments on public issues. As new policies are adopted, their availability is announced to the membership. Copies of any of these can be obtained upon request to ASCEs Washington office or by visiting ASCEs Web site at www.asce.org.

ORGANIZATION OF MEMBERSHIP

Councils
To affect closer contacts and improve communications among Sections, members, and the Board of Direction, the Society Bylaws (Article 9) authorize Sections with common interests to request the formation of Councils. Councils are encouraged to participate constructively in public and legislative affairs of interest and concern to civil engineers within the geographical, state or interstate areas of council jurisdiction. The council organization also provides for an exchange and integration of information, ideas and program activities amongst Sections, other councils and younger member groups. In 2004, the Society began a governance transition, with geographic Regions replacing the previous Zone and District structure. As part of this transition, some Councils have been dissolved. Year in parenthesis indicates date of organization of Council. When two telephone numbers appear consecutively, the second one is a fax number.

Sections and Branches

To meet the technical and professional needs of members at the local level and to assist them in accomplishing the purposes of the Society, the Board of Direction has authorized, from time to time since 1905, the formation of Sections. The map on page 644 shows International Sections and Groups which have been formed. The map on page 645 indicates United States Sections and their Geographic Region assignments. Many Sections have formed Branches to serve members at one or more centers of engineering population in their areas. Several Associate/Younger Member Forums/Committees have been established in Sections and Branches. Sections are organized within Geographic Regions, as noted on page 642. The Sections and Branches appoint various committees to aid in carrying on the work of the Society and they cooperate with the Student Chapters in the Sections areas. Newsletters are published periodically by a number of Sections and Branches to acquaint members with matters of local and national interest.

STUDENT ACTIVITIES
Student Chapters
The objective of the ASCE Student Chapter is to help students prepare themselves for entry into the Civil Engineering profession and society. Students must master principles and techniques of engineering to earn their degrees. There are, in addition, important non-technical subjects, generally called professional matters, which are not usually covered in class work. Many aspects of these professional matters lend themselves to Student Chapter programs. Student Chapters of the American Society of Civil Engineers also help civil engineering students begin those professional contacts and associations which, continued through life, are so valuable to the practicing engineer in serving humanity and the engineering profession more effectively. In addition, the Chapter is a good medium for developing skills of personal and public relations. For example, Chapter members prepare, present and discuss papers, conduct Chapter activities, hold office, request and entertain guest speakers, visit engineering works under construction, prepare reports to the Society and read the publications of the Society. These and many other Chapter activities contribute to broad personal development by stimulating an early professional consciousness while the student is still preoccupied with techniques. The formation of Student Chapters was authorized by the Board of Direction in 1920. Student Chapters may be established at universities within the United States and Puerto Rico that have an engineering or engineering technology program related to civil engineering and leading to an engineering or engineering technology degree. The various provisions for Student Chapter establishment and procedures are outlined in the ASCE Bylaws and Rules. The Student Organization Handbook provides a complete guide for Chapter activity. Each Chapter is assigned three Advisory Personnel: one Faculty Advisor and two Practitioner Advisors. Services provided to ASCE Student Chapters encompass awards, contests, workshops and conferences, Society membership (SM grade), program materials, scholarships and publications. Each Chapter receives complimentary monthly issues of Civil Engineering magazine and ASCE News. Graduating Chapter members are encouraged to submit Associate Member applications to Headquarters. A roster of Student Chapters can be obtained from ASCE Student Services by emailing student@asce.org.

LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
Leadership Development operates within the Professional Practice Department and is charged with creating and implementing programs and products to address the needs of ASCE members. The Committee on Professional Practice (CPP) provides program oversight for its goals and activities. Programs include effective volunteer leader presentations at Multi-Region Leadership Conferences and the Leader Education and Development (LEAD) Program. LEAD is an eight-month program of seven formal training sessions and one individual coaching session to develop dramatic growth in leadership confidence and skills.

THE ORDER OF THE ENGINEER

The Order of the Engineer was initiated in the United States to foster a spirit of pride and responsibility in the engineering profession, to bridge the gap between training and experience, and to present to the public a visible symbol identifying the engineer. The first Ring Ceremony was held on June 4, 1970 at Cleveland State University. Others like it have since spread across the United States at which graduate and licensed engineers are invited to accept the Obligation of the Engineer and to wear a stainless steel ring. The Ring Ceremonies are conducted by Links (local sections) of the Order. ASCE World Headquarters became a Link of the Order of the Engineer in August of 2003. Since then, over 2,600 individuals have become members of the Order as a result of more than 125 ASCE led Ring Ceremonies. These Ring Ceremonies are regularly conducted at the ASCE Annual Conference and other national events. In addition, ASCE staff is available to assist Sections, Branches, and other Society units in conducting Ring Ceremonies. The Obligation is a creed similar to the oath attributed to Hippocrates (460377 B.C.) that is generally taken by medical graduates and which sets forth an ethical code. The Obligation likewise, contains parts of the Canon of Ethics of major engineering societies. Initiates, as they accept it voluntarily, pledge to uphold the standards and dignity of the engineering profession and to serve humanity by making the best use of Earths precious wealth. The Order is not a membership organization; there are never any meetings to attend or dues to pay. Instead, the Order does foster a unity of purpose and the honoring of ones pledge lifelong. The Obligation of the Order of the Engineer is similar to the Canadian Ritual of the Calling of an Engineer initiated there in 1926. It uses a wrought iron ring, conducts a private ceremony, and administers an oath authorized by Rudyard Kipling. ASCE HQ can assist in conducting a Ring Ceremony by providing: ceremony information and scripts, Order of the Engineer initiates available to conduct the ceremony in your area, large ceremonial steel ring, and instructions for ordering individual rings and certificates.

For more information or assistance in arranging an ASCE led Ring Ceremony, please contact: Reggie Smith, Senior Program Coordinator, Professional Practice, (703) 295-6158 or go to www.asce.org/ professional/orderengineer.cfm.

TAC shall review and make recommendations to the ASCE Board of Direction (BOD) with respect to policy and financing of such activities. TAC shall establish procedures for creation, appointments and operations of its division/council executive committees. Such procedures are published in the Technical Activities Handbook. Special committees are also established and appointed by TAC to undertake special studies and specific assignments as necessary.

General Information
The purpose of each Division and Council is to foster the development and advancement of the science and practice of Civil Engineering, which is the part of engineering involving the interrelationship between the environment and the works of humanity. The Technical Activities Committee (TAC) is a committee of the ASCE Board of Direction (BOD) responsible for the supervision of technical activities of the Society not located within the Institutes. The Executive Committees (EXCOMs) are under the supervision of TAC. EXCOMs are assigned the task of managing the affairs of their Division or Technical Council. Division Technical Committees are charged with completing assignments approved by or delegated by the EXCOM. Task Committees are assigned a specific project for a two-year duration. Statements of purposes for each Division, Council, and Committee are contained on the following pages. Appointment of Committee Members 1. Executive Committees (EXCOMs). EXCOM members are selected from Society members in good standing who have demonstrated an active interest in Division/Council activities and who meet other specific criteria of the Division/Council. The EXCOM evaluates the background and qualifications of several candidates and selects its nominee. 2. Technical, Task and Subcommittees. Recommendations for membership on a committee may come by direct application from a member of the Society, a non-member, the committee chair or by an officer of the Society. Any request for committee membership should be sent to ASCE headquarters where it will be forwarded to the proper Division or Council EXCOM Chair. Reference is made to the Technical Activities Handbook for the general provisions. Committee Structure Each Committee and Task Committee consists of committee officers and committee members. The control group members of a committee are responsible for organizing and overseeing committee functions and ensuring completion of the committees various charges. Committees are permitted to designate up to five control group members. Task Committees within Councils/Divisions are limited, by TAC policy, to four control group members. The EXCOM contact member serves as the liaison between Division Technical and Administrative Committees and the EXCOM. Establishing New Committees Requests to establish new committees may be initiated by individual Division/Council members, existing committees, the EXCOM, or may arise from outside sources. All requests must be approved by the EXCOM. Requests submitted to the EXCOM must include a statement of purpose, a listing of proposed committee officers, a proposed budget, and a detailed description of the proposed committee functions. 294

TECHNICAL COUNCIL ON FORENSIC ENGINEERING

(Authorized July 8, 1985) Purpose: Forensic engineering is the application of engineering principles to the investigation of failures or other performance problems. Forensic engineering also involves testimony on the findings of these investigations before a court of law or other judicial forum, when required. Failures are not all catastrophic, such as when a building or bridge collapses, but include facilities or parts of facilities that do not perform as intended by the owner, design professional, or constructor. The purpose of the Technical Council on Forensic Engineering is to develop practices and procedures to reduce the number of such failures, to disseminate information on failures and their causes, to provide guidelines for conducting failure investigations, and to provide guidelines for ethical conduct in forensic engineering.

ASCE FOUNDATION

AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CIVIL ENGINEERS FOUNDATION (ASCE FOUNDATION)

Board of Directors
David G. Mongan, P.E., F.ASCE, Chair Luther W. Graef, P.E., F.ASCE, President William F. Marcuson III, Ph.D., P.E., Hon.M.ASCE, Treasurer and Director D. Wayne Klotz, P.E., D.WRE, F.ASCE, Director Staff Christine A. Williams, Executive Vice President Marcia J. Saumweber, Director, Development and Foundation Operations Kristen Morris, Manager, Major Gifts Ann Kashnikow, Administrator, Development and Foundation Operations Patrick J. Natale, P.E., CAE, F.ASCE, Director Christine A. Williams, Executive Vice President Marcia J. Saumweber, Secretary

Introduction
Founded in 1994 as a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization separate from ASCE, the mission of the ASCE Foundation is to generate resources for the civil engineering profession. To date, the ASCE Foundation has raised more than $20 million dollars through two successful capital campaigns and four active fundraising programsAnnual Appeal, Major Gifts, Sponsorship, and Planned Giving. As a 501(c)(3) organization, all donations to the Foundation are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law. The Foundation had two initial goals: 1) to purchase, finance, and renovate a new headquarters building in the Washington, DC area for the American Society of Civil Engineers, and 2) to successfully conduct a fundraising campaign to pay for unfinanced needs related to the new building. Upon completion of these two goals in 1997, the Foundations Board of Directors decided on the future direction of the Foundation by developing the following mission statement and strategic objectives.

Mission
The mission of the ASCE Foundation is: to generate resources for the civil engineering profession.

Strategic Objectives
The strategic objectives of the ASCE Foundation are: 1. Manage an Asset Program for real estate and other real property owned by the Foundation; 2. Establish a planned giving program, with emphasis on bequests, memorials, trusts, and related means of planned giving; 3. Provide fundraising guidance and counsel to civil engineering-related nonprofit groups; and 4. Generate and allocate resources for ASCE and its affiliates. Property Management The Foundation owns and operates the American Society of Civil Engineers World Headquarters building in Reston, Virginia, which it purchased in September 1994. It is a modern, class A, 107,000 square foot office building close to Dulles International Airport in the Washington, DC metropolitan area. ASCE and non-ASCE tenants lease space in the building and pay rent to the Foundation. Annual Appeal Program The ASCE Foundation relies upon unrestricted annual gifts from ASCE members and friends to help support its many activities. Since 1998, the Foundation has raised more than $755,000 through its Annual Appeal Program. Gifts of cash or appreciated securities are accepted with appropriate recognition given to donors for their tax-deductible contributions.

ASCE FOUNDATION Sponsorship Program

327

Since 1999, the ASCE Foundation has sought corporate sponsorships to support the programs of ASCE and its affiliates. More than $3,150,000 has been raised to date to support programs including: the OPAL Awards Dinners; CECAR; ASCEs 150th Anniversary Conference; The Infrastructure Security Partnerships Congress on Infrastructure Security for the Built Environment (ISBE) 2002; the 2004 Concrete Canoe Competition; the Roebling Symposium; ASCEs Board Committee Weeks and Annual Conferences; Structural Engineering Institute Congresses; Transportation & Development Institute Conferences; Geo-Institute Conferences; Environmental and Water Resources Institute Congresses; Coasts, Oceans, Ports, and Rivers Institute Conferences; Pipelines Conferences; Technical Activities Conferences, and various other conferences and meetings held by ASCE and its Institutes. Major Gifts Program The ASCE Foundations Major Gifts Program is designed to provide funding for programs and initiatives that will have a lasting and significant impact on ASCE and the civil engineering profession. As the ASCE Foundation strives to expand the core of philanthropic support for the civil engineering profession, individuals and organizations can make major investments in ASCE through the Major Gifts Program. More than $3.5 million has been raised for the Major Gifts Programs which include the: Excellence in Civil Engineering Education (ExCEEd) Program, West Point Bridge Design Contest (WPBDC) for high school students, Extraordinary Women Engineers Project (EWEP), the Summit on the Future of Civil Engineering in 2025 (CE2025); and the Anti-Corruption and Education Training Project (ACET). Awards and Scholarships Support Since 2004, the ASCE Foundation has raised more than $475,000 to support ASCE award and scholarship programs. Additionally, the ASCE Foundation facilitates the creation and funding of scholarships available to ASCE National Student Members. Recent scholarships include the Eugene C. Figg, Jr., Civil Engineering Scholarship (2004); the Y. C. Yang Civil Engineering Scholarship (2005); the Moorman Scholarship (2007); and the Lawrence W. and Francis W. Cox Scholarship (2007). Planned Giving Programs The ASCE Foundation established its Planned Giving Program in 1998 to raise money from ASCE members and friends to support ASCE programs and to generate future resources for the civil engineering profession in general. The Program has evolved over the years to include: Estate Planning Seminars Each year (for 10 years), the Foundation has provided a free Estate and Financial Planning Seminar at ASCEs Annual Conference to assist ASCE members and their families in planning their financial futures. These seminars are free of charge and are conducted by experts in the estate and financial planning field. In addition, individual consultations are offered to those interested in learning more about wills, trusts, how to use retirement accounts for charitable gifts, taxes, probate, etc. Understanding estate planning allows one to plan for ones future, as well as the future of civil engineering. Estate Planning Website In 2005, the Foundation launched an estate planning website www.asce.org/foundation to assist members with their estate planning. Members can use the site to: calculate their retirement income; read current articles on estate planning; access professional estate planning advisors; request additional brochures that are updated monthly; and access current information on preparing wills and trusts. All of the information is free of charge. Estate Planning Brochures Brochures on Wills, Life Insurance, Retirement Assets, and Trusts are available for ASCE members, and many have received mailings of these materials. To date, nearly 2,750 ASCE members have visited the estate planning website and have requested approximately 3,000 brochures on estate planning opportunities, all of which are available free of charge from the Foundation. These brochures include: Ten Steps to a Better Will; Trusts: A Legacy for the Future; Retirement Assets as a Charitable Gift; Life Insurance: The Different Gift; Making a Planned Gift: Leave a Legacy to Civil Engineering; and The Civil Engineering Legacy Society.

ASCE FOUNDATION

Civil Engineering Legacy Society Individuals who inform the Foundation that they have made planned gifts to the ASCE Foundation to support the future of civil engineering become members of The Civil Engineering Legacy Society. Currently, there are 30 members in the Legacy Society. Planned gifts received by the Foundation have ranged in size from $16,000 to $600,000. Making a planned gift is easy. All that is required is for the ASCE Foundation to be included in a members will, trust, or other estate planning vehicle. Capital Campaigns Building for the 21st Century and 2002: Building The Future In 1995, the Foundation launched a capital campaign, Building for the 21st Century, to raise funds to purchase, finance, and renovate a new headquarters building for ASCE, to pay for unfinanced needs related to the new building, and to move ASCE from New York City to Reston, Virginia. The very successful campaign raised $4.6 million on a goal of $3.5 million. All donors whose gifts to the Building for the 21st Century campaign were $1,000 or greater are inscribed on the donor wall in the Poirot Atrium on the second floor of ASCEs World Headquarters. From 2001 to 2003, the ASCE Foundation undertook a second capital campaign, 2002: Building The Future, and raised $6.7 million on an initial goal of $5 million to support ASCEs 150th Anniversary Programs and to grow CERFs (now CEFI) Innovation Fund. Resources were sought from across the engineering, construction, and environmental communities including corporations, foundations, ASCE members, ASCE staff, and other friends and supporters of the Society and CERF (CEFI). All donors whose gifts to 2002: Building The Future were $1,500 or greater are inscribed on the Monument to American Civil Engineering located on the third floor lobby of ASCEs World Headquarters. 150th Anniversary Programs As a major initiative of the ASCE 150th Anniversary in 2002, the ASCE Foundation coordinated a wide spectrum of national and community activities designed to promote and extend the legacy that is ASCE. In addition to recognizing ASCEs rich heritage, a major goal was to elevate the publics understanding and appreciation of the entire professions contributions to the world. The anniversary programs emphasized three goals: 1) stimulate the publics awareness and understanding of civil engineering; 2) inspire young people to become civil engineers; and, 3) preserve and promote the history of civil engineering. One of the 150th Anniversary Programs, Me Myself and Infrastructure: Private Lives and Public Works, a traveling museum exhibition, was calculated as having reached 11.8 million people when it was on exhibit at the National Building Museum in Washington, DC in 2002. Fundraising Guidance and Counsel The ASCE Foundation provides fundraising guidance and counsel to ASCEs committees, programs, sections, branches, and student members. In addition, it has assisted closely related organizations such as Engineers Without Borders, the Civil Engineering Forum for Innovation-CEFI (formally the Civil Engineering Research Foundation-CERF), Chi Epsilon, the World Engineering Partnership for Sustainable Development, and the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics in their quest for funding. The Foundation is able to: 1) conduct fundraising training and workshops, feasibility studies and research, and fundraising campaigns; 2) provide special event management; and 3) produce fundraising materials including print, electronic, video, and web-based. ASCE Foundation News Each year, the Foundation produces two issues of ASCE Foundation News to promote issues of interest to the Foundation and its donors including the: OPAL Awards Dinner, Extraordinary Women Engineers Project; Figg and Yang Scholarships; Estate and Financial Planning Seminars; 150th Anniversary Programs; the Summit on the Future of Civil Engineering in 2025; and civil engineering in general. In addition, ASCE Foundation News recognizes individual ASCE members and friends of the Society who make gifts to support civil engineering.

THE ARCHITECTURAL ENGINEERING INSTITUTE (AEI) OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CIVIL ENGINEERS
The Architectural Engineering Institute (AEI) was created through a merger of the National Society of Architectural Engineers and the American Society of Civil Engineers Architectural Engineering Division, on October 1, 1998. Unique among those represented at ASCE, the architectural engineering field is highly multi-disciplinary. Consequently, AEI serves as the logical home for all professionals in the building industry. Purpose: AEI serves to unite members of the design building team in an effort to facilitate communication and cooperation, both on a project basis and in the professional and technical areas. The need for a professional organization such as AEI exists because architectural engineering, structural, mechanical, electrical and architectural disciplines all share the effort in the design of buildings in roughly equal parts. As a result, one of the main problems in the industry is the lack of communication among these integral members of the building team. Because all of these disciplines (and more) must interface and cooperate on a project, technical and design issues in the industry must be addressed in a unified manner in order to advance the state of the building design industry. There is a great need for a national forum for these disciplines to examine issues and exchange views and information. It is for the purpose of providing this forum that it was proposed to establish AEI. Vision The global leader for the development and operation of buildings. Mission To serve the building community by promoting an integrated, multidisciplinary approach to planning, design, construction, and operation of buildings and by encouraging excellence in practice, education, and research of architectural engineering. The Architectural Engineering Institute admits both Individual Members and Corporate Members. The different categories of membership are (Article IV, Section 1): Fellow Member Associate Member Student Member Affiliate Member Corporate Member Supporting Corporate Member Cooperative Member Thomas Babacz, P.E., Secretary Al Dorman, P.E., Hon.M.ASCE, F.AIA Mohammed M.

THE COASTS, OCEANS, PORTS, AND RIVERS INSTITUTE (COPRI) OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CIVIL ENGINEERS
The former Waterway, Port, Coastal and Ocean (WPCO) Division was a small but technically very active part of ASCEs Technical Activities (TAC). The members of the WPCO Division strongly supported and created the Coasts, Oceans, Ports and Rivers Institute (COPRI). Enrollees of this former Division comprise COPRIs Founding membership. Created on October 1, 2000, COPRI replaces ASCEs Waterway, Port, Coastal and Ocean Division, and serves as a multidisciplinary and international leader in improving knowledge, education, development, and the practice of civil engineering and other disciplines in the coastal, ocean, port, waterways, riverine, and wetlands environment for the benefit of society in the United States and other countries. The Institute advances and disseminates scientific and engineering knowledge to professionals in diverse disciplines engaged in the development and protection of coasts, oceans, ports, waterways, rivers, and wetlands. The Institute also fosters communication and cooperation among domestic and international members of the government, industry, and education communities. COPRI offers benefits and services designed to support the career success of its members as well as providing opportunities to give back to their profession. COPRI offers the following career and professional growth opportunities: A network with ocean, coastal, port, waterway, riverine and wetlands professionals Participation in technical activities, products and services performed by committees and task committees Development of leadership skills through a series of progressively more responsible volunteer opportunities Waterways, the COPRI newsletter, to keep members informed of activities within the Institute Discounts on COPRI publications and specialty conferences on topics such as: Coastal Disasters Coastal Sediments Coastal Structures Dredging Offshore Technology Ports Waves Subscription discount on COPRIs Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering

Task Committee on System Analysis and NSF Observations Purpose: To integrate a systems perspective into the design and implementation of NSFs Coordinated Large-Scale Environmental Observatories (Eos). These EOs are being developed with the active participation of both the Consortium of Universities for the Advancement of Hydrologic Science (CUAHSI) and Collaborative Large-scale Engineering Analysis Network for Environmental Research (CLEANER), and are intended to further the state of knowledge in areas related to processes occurring over a range of scales over an entire watershed. More specifically, the EOs will allow for the investigation of human impacts on water availability, water quality and extreme events (e.g. drought, floods), with monitoring networks that will generate data useful in the exploration of both micro- and macroscale phenomena. While these EOs will certainly give rise to novel investigations at a targeted disciplinary level (e.g. geology, climate, land use/land cover), less consideration has been given to characterizing the systems, both natural and human, that will link these more compartmentalized topical areas. This task committee will explore the role that systems analysis could have in characterizing and evaluating processes linked throughout the watershed, and identify design criteria that will facilitate the development of monitoring and data collection networks that will support these investigations. Identifying and understanding the interactions between natural and human systems will be an important consideration in the formulation of sustainable water resource management strategies, an activity for which the EWRI community is uniquely qualified.

Computational Modeling of Hydraulic Structures Task Committee Purpose: Modeling of hydraulic structures presents many computational challenges to design/evaluation engineers. Hydraulic structures often have components containing internal flow while other components hold external flow. Multiple regions of rapid accelerations translate to significant differences in Reynolds number of various portions of the model flow field. The geometric complexity of most hydraulic structures necessitates the use of CAD-to-grid generator interface. This committee will assess the state of computational modeling of flow at hydraulic structures. Richard L. Stockstill, P.E., M.ASCE, Chair Robert C. Berger David H. Huddleston, P.E., M.ASCE Ehab A.

Computational Modeling of Sediment Transport Processes Task Committee Purpose: In order to maximize the benefits of high-speed computational facilities, modeling sediment transport and bank erosion and the resultant river morphological processes has attracted increasing concerns from researchers and engineers. Even though several sediment models have been developed and adopted to engineering practices, owing to the lack of the understanding in the interaction between flow and sediment, these models can not always produce satisfactory results for engineers. In the meantime, numerous researchers and engineers in the past 20 years have been dedicated to enriching our knowledge of sediment transport modeling. Therefore, there is a need for us to form a task committee to review the state-of-the-art of computational model techniques and identify the research needs in order to enhance the capability of computational models for the prediction of sedimentation processes.

THE GEO-INSTITUTE OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CIVIL ENGINEERS

The American Society of Civil Engineers created the Geo-Institute (G-I) in October 1996. The GeoInstitute is an organization of individual scientists, engineers, and technologists who have technical interests in soil, rock, and the fluids they contain and who have as a common goal the application of that interest to the improvement of the environment, the mitigation of natural hazards, and the economical construction of engineered facilities. Core Purpose: To advance the geo-engineering community. Core Values: Responsiveness to members needs; ethical behavior; service to the profession and society; innovation; technical excellence; and inclusiveness. Goals: Goals of the Institute include: G-I will be its members indispensable resource for professional and technical knowledge, education, certification and services; G-I will be a leader in developing collaborative relationships with other geo-organizations to advance the profession; G-I will be recognized as the leading source of geo-engineering information and knowledge for the greater geo-engineering community, key stakeholders and the general public; G-I will be a proactive force for increasing the diversity of the membership and the geo-profession. The Geo-Institute also serves as the United States of America member society of the International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE). The Geo-Institute is led by a Board of Governors (BoG) consisting of between seven and nine voting and two nonvoting members. Five Governors are elected at large by the membership of the Geo-Institute, in accordance with the Bylaws of the Geo-Institute. The Board of Governors may appoint up to three additional Governors. One additional Governor will be appointed by the Societys Board of Direction. The two nonvoting governors are the International Secretary to the ISSMGE and the GeoInstitute Director.

Geographic distribution and representation of the full technical scope and professional function of the Geo-Institute shall be considered in the Committees recommendation. The Board is then charged with selecting one individual for each open position from the Committees list of recommended nominees to appear on the ballot. d. If the Committee submits only one nominee for each open position and that individual receives at least eighty percent (80%) support from the Committee, the Committees recommendation does not require Board approval and this individuals name shall appear on the ballot. In the event that this occurs, the Board of Governors may authorize a candidate of its own, provided the individual selected meets the qualifications for a Governor, to appear on the ballot in addition to and along with the Committee-approved nominee. e. Once the ballot is announced to the general membership in the official Geo-Institute publication or other appropriate means to include the world wide web, a petition process shall be per-

Write-in candidates will not be accepted. The candidate(s) receiving the most votes shall become the Governor(s)-Elect. In the event of a tie, selection shall be made by the Board of Governors from the persons so tied. g. In the event there is only one candidate on the ballot for each open position after the deadline for petitions is passed, the Board shall have the authority to certify the election results without balloting the membership. The candidate(s) will then become the Governor(s)-Elect. h. Each nominee must file a written notice with the Geo-Institute Executive Direction prior to the election stating that the nominee will serve if elected. 4. Term of Office. The term of office of each elected Governor shall be three years and the Governor may be reelected or appointed. The term of office for appointed Governors shall be two years.

A Governor may resign at any time by giving written notice of such resignation to the Secretary of the Board. Any elected officer or Governor shall continue service unless earlier having resigned or been removed, until a successor qualifies and takes office. 5. Vacancies. Whenever any vacancy occurs in an elected position of the Board, other than by expiration of a Governors term, it shall be filled without undue delay for not longer than the unexpired remainder of the term as a direct appointment of the remaining Governors. Whenever any vacancy occurs in an appointed position of the Board, other than by expiration of a Governors term, it shall be filled for the remainder of the term without undue delay as a direct appointment of the original appointing body. 6. Meetings a. There shall be a minimum of one regular meeting of the Board scheduled each year. Other regular meetings may be called by the President, as needed, or by a majority of the Governors.

All governors must be given at least five days notice of a special meeting. Special meetings shall be limited in scope to the issue or issues specified in the meeting notice. c. At all regular or special meetings of the Board, a simple majority of the voting Governors shall be sufficient to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, and the act of a simple majority of the Governors present at any regular or special meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the Board, except as may be otherwise specifically provided by these Bylaws or other applicable instrument or law. If at any such meeting there is less than a quorum present, the presiding officer shall adjourn the meeting to another time and place. d. Any action required to be taken at a meeting of the Board, or any action that may be taken at a meeting of the Board, may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by all Governors and be filed with the minutes of the meetings. e. Members of the Board may participate in any meeting of the Board by conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute attendance at the meeting.

In 2003, the Board of Direction approved the revision to the ASCE Rules for Standards Committees to govern the writing and maintenance of standards developed by the Society. All such standards are developed by a consensus standards process managed by the Societys Codes and Standards Committee (CSC). The consensus process includes balloting by a balanced standards committee made up of Society members and nonmembers, balloting by the membership of the Society as a whole, and balloting by the public. All standards are updated or reaffirmed by the same process at intervals not exceeding five years.

ASCE Rules for Standards Committees

Approved by ASCE Codes and Standards Committee: May 1, 2006 Approved by ASCE Governing Documents Committee: May 24, 2006 Approved by ASCE Board of Direction: July 22, 2006 Effective Date: November 1, 2006 1. SCOPE 1.1 General These ASCE Rules for Standards Committees (Rules) govern the organization and operation of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) standards committees (Committees), standards councils (Councils), the executive committees of Councils or technical divisions (Council ExComs), and the Codes and Standards Committee (CSC). The organization and responsibilities of CSC are defined in Article 9 of ASCEs Rules of Policy and Procedure. For Councils without an executive committee, the term Council ExCom shall refer to the Council as a whole. CSC shall interpret matters not covered in these Rules and shall be permitted to publish supplemental policies and procedures. 1.2 Revisions and Updates Anyone at any time shall be permitted to propose revisions to these Rules in writing to CSC. CSC shall submit its recommended revisions to the ASCE Board of Direction for approval and if approved then to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) for approval. 2. ESTABLISHING A STANDARDIZATION ACTIVITY 2.1 Requests Any person, organization, or existing committee shall be permitted to submit to CSC a proposal to establish a standardization activity. ASCE will undertake only those standardization activities that are of substantial public benefit, consistent with ASCEs goals, and feasible within the resources available to ASCE. 2.2 Proposal Contents A proposal to establish a standardization activity shall include the following: a. A concise statement of the scope of the standard and the system of measurement units to be used in the standard. b. The objective of the standard, including whether it is intended for mandatory or non-mandatory use, and if it is intended to become an American National Standard (ANS). c. The need for and anticipated benefits to the public of the proposed standardization activity. 537

538 d. A rationale for ASCE undertaking the activity. e. Potential Committee members. f. A core user group of the proposed standard.

CODES & STANDARDS

g. Existing standards related to the topic area, including International Standards Organization (ISO) or International Electrotechnical Commission standards (IEC). h. A schedule for producing the standard. i. An estimate of the Committee costs and funding sources. 2.3 Proposal Review and Acceptance CSC shall distribute each proposal to appropriate ASCE committees for a 30-day review. CSC shall then review the comments and make a determination as to whether to approve the proposal. If approved by majority vote a committee shall be charged to develop the standard. 2.4 Committee Scope CSC shall take one of the following actions if an approved standardization activity does not fit within the scope of an existing Committee: a. Change the scope of an existing Committee, with their concurrence, to include the new standardization activity or b. Establish a new Committee within an appropriate discipline-specific Council with their concurrence; or c. Directly supervise a new Committee. 2.5 Duplications and Conflicts Committees shall make every effort to avoid conflicts with other ASCE standards or those of ANSI-accredited standards developing organizations. Any individual, group, or organization concerned that a proposed standardization activity duplicates or conflicts with an existing standard or a candidate standard being developed by an ANSI-accredited organization shall submit a written statement asserting their concerns to CSC. It shall be CSCs responsibility to initiate and participate in deliberation of the issues within 90 days to resolve assertions of duplication or conflict. The deliberations shall be permitted to take a variety of forms including an in-person meeting, conference call, written correspondence, e-mail, or a combination of forms. If the party or parties raising the issue of duplication or conflict do not enter into deliberations with CSC within 90 days after receipt of notification and it can be demonstrated to CSC that a good faith effort has been made to schedule or otherwise organize the deliberations, then CSC shall render a decision without deliberation. The outcome of the deliberations shall be recorded and retained as part of the records of the standardization activity. 2.6 Joint Sponsorship Committees shall be permitted to be jointly sponsored by ASCE technical divisions, other technical councils of ASCE, ASCE Institutes, and by other organizations. These Rules apply to all Committee activities sponsored or co-sponsored by ASCE, unless CSC accepts the use of a co-sponsors rules. Where the co-sponsor has its own rules and a conflict exists, CSC shall approve any deviation from these Rules. 2.7 Notification of New Standardization Activity After CSC approves a new standardization activity, CSC shall take steps to notify interested parties of the proposed project. Notification shall include, but not be limited to, the following as appropriate: a. Notification to ANSI (e.g., PINS form). b. Publication in ASCE News (print and/or electronic media). c. Notification to the public (e.g., consumer groups, public interest organizations, engineering societies, and technical organizations). 2.8 Termination of Standardization Activity 2.8.1 Initiation of termination. In the event a standardization activity becomes obsolete, is no longer in demand, or is no longer appropriate for ASCE, CSC shall be permitted to initiate termination by a two-thirds (2/3) vote.

All suggestions will be considered by the standards committee. 4.3.4 Responsibility for identifying patents. Neither a Committee nor ASCE shall be responsible for identifying all patents for which a license shall be permitted to be required in using an ASCE standard or for conducting inquiries into the legal validity or scope of those patents that are brought to the Societys attention. 4.3.5 Notice. When the Society receives from a patent holder the assurance set forth in 4.3.1, the standard shall include a note as follows: NOTEThe users attention is called to the possibility that compliance with this standard shall be permitted to require use of an item covered by patent rights. By publication of this standard, the American Society of Civil Engineers takes no position with respect to the validity of this claim or of any patent rights in connection therewith. Users of this standard are expressly advised that determination of the validity of any such patent rights, and the risk of infringement of such rights, are entirely their own responsibility. The patent holder has, however, filed a statement of willingness to grant a license under these rights on reasonable and nondiscriminatory terms and conditions to applicants desiring to obtain such a license. Details shall be permitted to be obtained from ASCE. 4.3.6 Footnote. In addition, a statement shall be placed in a footnote of the standard in each specific section of the standard in which the patented item is mentioned. The footnote shall be as follows: The (name of material, product, process, procedure, apparatus) is covered by a patent. Interested parties are invited to submit information regarding the identification of an alternative(s) to this patented item to ASCE Headquarters.

I. Typically presented at the ASCE Annual Civil Engineering Conference, the award is judged by the Committee on Communications (CCOM) and approved by the Executive Committee of the ASCE Board of Direction. CCOM can present the Award to one or more nominees, give honorable mention awards, or bestow no awards at all. CCOM recommends to the Executive Committee of the ASCE Board of Direction for final approval a recipient who is judged superior based on how well they a) fairly cover all sides of the civil engineering project or issue; b) accurately describe the civil engineering project or issue; c) effectively explain how the project or outcome of the issue benefits the community or region; d) clearly show the civil engineers role; e) include the most knowledgeable civil engineering experts; and f) advance public knowledge and understanding of the civil engineering profession and its issues. The award includes a suitably inscribed certificate and cash honorarium which shall be sufficient to reimburse travel expenses to attend the ASCE Annual Civil Engineering Conference in order to receive the award in person. The award is self-supporting. Allowable expenses are funded from an endowment created by contributions.

Student Organization Awards Each year the most outstanding Student Organizations are awarded Regional Governors Awards (formerly known as Vice Presidents Awards). These awards are presented by the respective Regional Governors on recommendation of the Committee on Student Activities. In addition, a limited number of ASCE Student Organizations may be awarded Certificates of Commendation based on the quality of their general performance. The certificates are awarded by the President of the Society upon recommendation of the Committee on Student Activities. Competition is keen, and the evaluation process involves scoring annual reports of activity submitted by the Student Organizations. The scoring formula, which is made available to accompany report forms, also serves as a recommended set of goals or guidelines. More frequent meetings, field trips, attendance at conferences, presentations of papers, and the undertaking of special projects are encouraged. While scores remain confidential, a Student Organization can grade itself in the statistical portion and estimate the subjective rating of the value of their special projects. The number of Student Organizations to receive Certificates of Commendation shall not exceed five percent of the total number of Student Organizations. Those Student Organizations that miss receiving Certificates of Commendation, but still report outstanding activity may receive a Letter of Honorable Mention from the current President of the Society. ASCE publicizes these three lists, and makes Certificates of Outstanding Performance available to Sections for the Advisory Personnel to these winning Student Organizations.
