ACI 121R-08 PDF Download

ACI 121R-08 is a guide developed by the American Concrete Institute (ACI) Committee 121 to assist the concrete construction industry in implementing quality management systems in accordance with the ISO 9001:2000 standard. The manual provides detailed discussions for each clause of ISO 9001:2000, offering construction-specific advice and information. The purpose of this guide is to aid organizations in either developing a new quality management system that complies with ISO 9001:2000 or upgrading an existing system to meet the requirements of the updated standard.

Additionally, the manual includes Appendix A, which features a model Quality Management System Manual specifically designed for designers, construction managers, and constructors. This manual is based on the practices of the "NYC MTA Bridges and Tunnels, Engineering and Construction Department" and is suggested as a template for companies starting to draft their own quality manuals.
