Abstract:
ACI has received written requests for clarification of the intent or application of provisions for special structural walls included in ACI 318-19: Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete. In response, ACI Committee 318, Structural Concrete Building Code, has developed, balloted, and approved three code cases to clarify the relevant Code sections.
