The Guest Editor is a subject matter expert who identifies demand for an issue in a particular area and submits a proposal to the <a href="mailto:lauren.mentz@concrete.org?subject=Special Issue Proposal">Editorial Board</a> for consideration. </p> <p>Once a special issue topic is approved by the Editorial Board, the Guest Editor will work with ACI Staff to develop a Call for Papers that is published on the ACI Website and in Concrete International. Once the Call for Papers closes, the Guest Editor will review the submitted abstracts and determine which authors will be invited to submit a manuscript for potential inclusion in the special issue. </p> <p>All authors invited to submit a manuscript for a special issue will follow the same requirements as outlined in <a href="/getinvolved/becomeanaciauthor/writingforacijournals.aspx">Writing for ACI Journals</a>. </p> <p>For additional information on publishing special issues, please review our <a href="/Portals/0/Files/PDF/Special-Issues-Guide.pdf" target="_blank">Publishing Special Issues Guide</a>. </p></div> </div><!-- End_Module_36986 --></div> </div></div></div> </div> <div class="columns four" style="float:right;"> <div id="dnn_Row1Columns4" class="DNNEmptyPane"> </div> </div> <div class="columns twelve"> <div id="dnn_Row1Columns12" class="DNNEmptyPane"> </div> </div> <div class="columns four" style="float:right;"> <div id="dnn_Row1Columns4Bottom" class="DNNEmptyPane"> </div> </div> <div class="columns thirteen"> <div id="dnn_Row2Columns13" class="DNNEmptyPane"> </div> </div> <div class="columns three"> <div id="dnn_Row2Columns3" class="DNNEmptyPane"> </div> </div> <div class="four columns mobile-toggle-off"> <div id="dnn_Row3Columns4Left" class="leftPane DNNEmptyPane"> </div> </div> <div class="columns eight"> <div id="dnn_Row3Columns8" class="DNNEmptyPane"> </div> </div> <div class="columns four"> <div id="dnn_Row3Columns4Right" class="rightPane DNNEmptyPane"> </div> </div> <div class="columns ten"> <div id="dnn_Row4Columns10" class="DNNEmptyPane"> </div> </div> <div class="columns six"> <div id="dnn_Row4Columns6" class="DNNEmptyPane"> </div> </div> <div id="dnn_GalleryPane" class="columns sixteen DNNEmptyPane"> </div> </div> <div id="dnn_ReviewPane" class="columns eight"> <div class="DnnModule DnnModule-ContentReviewModule DnnModule-36988"><a name="36988"></a> <div class="DNNContainer_without_title"> <div id="dnn_ctr36988_ContentPane"><!-- Start_Module_36988 --><div id="dnn_ctr36988_ModuleContent" class="DNNModuleContent ModContentReviewModuleC"> <p>Edit Module Settings to define Page Content Reviewer</p> </div><!-- End_Module_36988 --></div> </div></div><div class="DnnModule DnnModule-ACI_Security DnnModule-24000"><a name="24000"></a> <div class="DNNContainer_without_title"> <div id="dnn_ctr24000_ContentPane"><!-- Start_Module_24000 --><div id="dnn_ctr24000_ModuleContent" class="DNNModuleContent ModACISecurityC"> </div><!-- End_Module_24000 --></div> </div></div><div class="DnnModule DnnModule-ACI_Utilities DnnModule-24001"><a name="24001"></a> <div class="DNNContainer_without_title"> <div id="dnn_ctr24001_ContentPane"><!-- Start_Module_24001 --><div id="dnn_ctr24001_ModuleContent" class="DNNModuleContent ModACIUtilitiesC"> <style type="text/css" > .progressContainer{ position: fixed;
