Concrete Design Codes
The analysis and computation of design forces in the RAM Concrete Analysis Gravity Analysis mode are based on the requirements of the following concrete codes:
- ACI 318 99/02/05/08/11/14/19 "Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete" (ACI 318-99, ACI 318-02, ACI 318-05, ACI 318-08, ACI 318-11, ACI 318-14, and ACI 318-19) and Commentary, American Concrete Institute, Farmington Hills, MI
- BS 8110-1:1997
"Structural use of concrete - Part 1: Code of practice
for design and construction", Incorporating Amendments 1, 2, & 3.
This code is hereafter referred to as BS8110.
-
CP 65-1:1996 "Code of practice for structural use of concrete - Part 1: Design and construction"
This code is hereafter referred to as CP 65. When not explicitly mentioned in a section of this document a reference to BS8110 will apply to CP 65.
- AS 3600-2001 and AS
3600-2009"Concrete Structures".
This code is hereafter referred to as AS 3600-01 or AS 3600-09 (or simply AS 3600 for items which are not edition-specific).
