Abstract:
This article describes one industry effort to develop alternative methods for designing concrete in compliance with the current building codes in the United States. It focuses on compliance verification and development of an acceptance criteria document for twisted steel micro reinforcement by International Code Council Evaluation Service—ICC-ES AC470.
