POSTER SESSION – CALL FOR POSTERS

The Poster Session is open to all personnel who has a tie to the industry.

We are still accepting posters for the 2023 Poster Session!  All poster session presenters must be available in-person at the 2023 Pipe School.

The Poster Session is an opportunity for industry personnel to showcase to their colleagues something unique or of significance.  This could be a variety of things ranging from a case study, technical concept, or a new product/concept.  For further ideas and descriptions, please see below.

SEE THE PREVIOUS VIRTUAL POSTERS

To make a poster, you simply provide quality digital photos, graphics, and/or content to the ACPA and we will provide the layout for your review and approval.  During the Poster Session, Pipe School attendees mingle through the posters giving you a chance to showcase your poster to a small group.  This continues as the groups pass through and cycle to the next poster in line.

NOTE:  Poster presenters must be available to present their posters during the 2023 Pipe School.

Example Poster Topics (not limited to these):

• Project Case Studies – An illustration of a project of significance. This could be anything from small diameter to large diameter pipe, a special design, a box, or a microtunnel. It could even be illustration of your company’s clutch effort to come through for a client.
• Technical Concept – A brief explanation of a technical or promotional concept with regional or national significance. For example, Resiliency, Wifldfire Risk, ASTM C1840 / AASHTO Guide Spec for Highway Construction, or a specification change.
• Government Relations – Featuring some type of important legislative topic, such as Open Competition, South Carolina’s relationship with their Transportation Commission, etc.
• DOT / Agency Topic – Does one of your guests have a topic that they wish to showcase in a poster? DOT engineers have participated in past poster sessions and we are looking extend that into this year.
• Stunning or Interesting Photographs – Do you have an incredible photo that is worth “a thousands words?” A photo that tells a story, makes a point, or stops an engineer in her or his tracks? This photo could illustrate a laborer operating a jumping jack, concrete pipe replacing plastic pipe, buoyancy, resiliency, etc.

The Pipe School selection committee will review all submitted posters and accepted posters will be notified shortly after submittal.
