RESULTS FOR CODES FOR CONCRETE

A building code is a set of rules that specify the minimum acceptable level of safety for structural concrete buildings. The ACI 318, “Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete and Commentary,” is the document that presents the code requirements for design and construction of structural concrete that are necessary to ensure public safety.
