Abstract:
ACI Committee 369 is working with ASCE Committee 41 on the state of the art of seismic assessment of reinforced concrete buildings. These sessions will present potential updates for ASCE 41 and summarize work done by committee members on modeling parameters and acceptance criteria for concrete components, including columns, joints, and walls. Example applications of ASCE 41-13 to existing concrete buildings will also be presented. This session will be of value to practicing engineers engaged in seismic retrofit projects using ASCE 41.
