Abstract:
Only three sections in Chapter 18—Earthquake-Resistant Structures of ACI 318-19 remain unchanged in comparison to ACI 318-14. This is the first of two articles that outline these changes, covering changes in sections governing structural systems, mechanical splices, and the design of moment frames.
