CP-22 Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) Reinforcing Bar Inspector

A certified Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) Reinforcing Bar Inspector is an individual who has demonstrated the knowledge required to properly perform jobsite inspection of GFRP Reinforcing Bars used in concrete construction projects. The GFRP Reinforcing Bar Inspector must understand proper storage, handling, and placement considerations specific to GFRP reinforcement.

This program requires demonstration of the knowledge covered on the Job Task Analysis (JTA) for GFRP Reinforcing Bar Inspector:

JTA for ACI Certification of GFRP Reinforcing Bar Inspector

The JTA is a detailed list of specific points of knowledge that may be included in the examination for this ACI Certification program. ACI urges candidates to use the JTA to prepare for the certification exam.

This program is intended to be expanded over time to include materials other than GFRP bars as standards for these materials are developed and released for use; the program and credential titles may change if this occurs.

ACI will grant certification only to those applicants who score a minimum of 70% on a written examination that covers knowledge points articulated on JTA. The 60-minute written examination is closed-book and consists of 30 multiple-choice questions.

Certification is valid for a period of five years from the date of successfully completing all requirements.
