D1.F.7 Scope of ACI 318 Code Implemented

The following describes the code clauses from ACI 318-14 implemented for beams and columns.

Note: Plate elements and deep beams cannot be designed per ACI 318-14. Use an older edition of the ACI code to design these elements if needed.

Materials

  • Beams
    • 19.2.2
    • 19.2.3.1
    • 19.2.4.2
  • Columns
    • 19.2.2
    • 19.2.4.2

Minimum Reinforcement

  • Beams
    • 9.6.1.1
    • 9.6.1.2
    • 9.6.1.3
    • 9.7.2.1
    • 9.7.6.4.2
    • 9.7.6.4.3
  • Columns
    • 10.6.1
    • 10.7.2.1
    • 10.7.3.1
    • 10.7.6.1
    • 10.7.6.2
    • 25.2.3

Clauses 9.7.6.4.2 and 9.7.6.4.3 are not included in the standard design criteria of the minimum reinforcement since the design of these criteria should consider the rebar including the bar detailing and thus they should be applied in a second design after performing the strength design and the bar detailing.

Clause 9.6.1.3 is also not included in the standard criteria since the reduction of the minimum reinforcement is optional.
