DESCRIPTION
PREFACE
The Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete (Code) covers the materials,
design, and construction of structural concrete used in buildings and where appl
icable in nonbuilding Structures. The Code also covers the strength evaluation o
f existing concrete structures.
Among the subjects covered are: contract documents; inspection; materials; durab
ility requirements; concrete quality, mixing, and placing; formwork; embedded pi
pes; construction joints; reinforcement details; analysis and design; strength a
nd serviceability; flexural and axial loads; shear and torsion; development and
splices of reinforcement; slab systems; walls; footings; precast concrete; compo
site flexural members; prestressed concrete; shells and folded plate members; st
rength evaluation of existing structures; provisions for seismic design; structu
ral plain concrete; strut-and- tie modeling in Appendix A; alternative design pr
ovisions in Appendix B; alternative load and strength reduction factors in Appen
dix C; and anchoring to concrete in Appendix D.
The quality and testing of materials used in construction are covered by referen
ce to the appropriate ASTM standard specifications. Welding of reinforcement is
covered by reference to the appropriate American Welding Society (AWS) standard.
Uses of the Code include adoption by reference in general building codes, and e
arlier editions have been widely used in this manner. The Code is written in a f
ormat that allows such reference without change to its language. Therefore, back
ground details or suggestions for carrying out the requirements or intent of the
Code portion cannot be included.
The Commentary is provided for this purpose. Some of the considerations of the c
ommittee in developing the Code portion are discussed within the Commentary, wit
h emphasis given to the explanation of new or revised provisions. Much of the re
search data referenced in preparing the Code is cited for the user desiring to s
tudy individual questions in greater detail. Other documents that provide sugges
tions for carrying out the requirements of the Code are also cited.
Keywords: admixtures; aggregates; anchorage (structural); beam-column frame; bea
