He is also a member of ACI Building Code Subcommittee 318-B on Reinforcement and Development and ACI-ASCE Committee 445 on Shear and Torsion. Dr. Darwin is an acknowledged expert on concrete crack control and bond between steel reinforcement and concrete. He received the ACI Arthur R. Anderson Award for his research efforts in plain and reinforced concrete, the ACI Structural Research Award, the ACI Joe W. Kelly Award for his contributions to teaching and design, and the ACI Foundation – Concrete Research Council Arthur J. Boase Award for his research on reinforcing steel and concrete cracking. He has also received a number of awards from the American Society of Civil Engineers, including the Walter L. Huber Civil Engineering Research Prize, the Moisseiff Award, and the State-of-the-Art of Civil Engineering Award twice, the Richard R. Torrens Award, and the Dennis L. Tewksbury Award, and has been honored for his teaching by both undergraduate and graduate students at the University of Kansas. He is past editor of the ASCE Journal of Structural Engineering. Professor Darwin is a Distinguished Member of ASCE and a Fellow of ACI and the Structural Engineering Institute of ASCE. He is a licensed professional engineer and serves as a consultant in the fields of concrete materials and structures.
