The tenth edition of PCA Notes on ACI 318-08 Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete with Design Applications reflects the changes that are introduced to the latest version of Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete, ACI 318-08, and Commentary, ACI 318R-08.
This classic PCA publication includes all of the revisions with design examples that also reflect the new terminology, notation, load and strength reduction factors, as well as the unified design provisions for reinforced and pre-stressed concrete members under axial flexure and load. The book also includes an example of an alternative torsion design method, and comes complete with a summary with illustrations. In addition, enhanced provisions for the design of anchors are described. Their application is illustrated through several examples throughout the text. This book includes all of the descriptions of the latest code changes while also providing instruction on how best to apply the Code. Instruction is supplemented by illustration.
The PCA Notes are a great resource for architects and construction professionals, providing a valuable instruction guide on how best to apply the ACI 318-08 design standard. This document is an invaluable aid for educators, graduate and undergraduate students, contractors, building code authorities, materials and product manufacturers, and inspectors. This text is 1,026 pages.
