Abstract:
In 2010, ACI Committee 375, Performance-Based Design of Concrete Buildings for Wind Loads, conducted a survey to determine the worldwide state of the professional practice for the design of reinforced concrete buildings subjected to wind loads. The survey consisted of 15 questions categorized in four groups: general criteria, serviceability and performance criteria, strength limit state criteria, and dynamic properties. Survey results are summarized.
