3 History 1904 "Joint Committee on on Reinforced Concrete" established with with representatives from: American American Society Society for for Testing Testing and and Materials Materials --ASTM ASTM American American Society Society of of Civil Civil Engineers Engineers --ASCE ASCE American American Railway Railway Engineering Engineering and and Maintenance Maintenance of of Way Way Association Association (later (later to to become become AREA) AREA) Association Association of of American American Portland Portland Cement Cement Manufacturers Manufacturers (later (later to to become become PCA). PCA). Initial funding came from the the USGS. In In the the first first years of of existence the the Joint Committee produced several drafts for for a Concrete Code National Association of of Cement Users founded (later to to become ACI) ACI)

4 History 1909 ACI established a committee to to develop a Concrete Code later to to become ACI Committee The "Joint Committee on on Reinforced Concrete" published a Concrete Design Code s Both the Joint Committee Requirements and ACI 318 Requirements coexist and become more similar as as time passes s At At the end of of this decade ACI 318 Requirements become the single document in in the US dealing with concrete design.

5 Development of the ACI 318 flexural requirements Both the the Joint Committee Requirements and and the the National Association of of Cement Users (later to to become ACI) ACI) used WSD (Working Stress Design) in in their codes s The The Joint Committee and and ACI ACI requirements were merged in in a single document named ACI ACI using WSD An An Appendix was was introduced in in ACI ACI for for USD (Ultimate Strength Design) ACI ACI contained both WSD and and USD requirements and and the the designer could choose either method ACI ACI was was full full USD and and the the WSD was was sent sent to to an an Appendix 0.45f c M T s = f s A s φm n T s = f y A s

6 Development of the ACI 318 flexural requirements 1989 The The name of of ACI ACI is is changed from Building Code Requirements for for Reinforced Concrete to to Building Code Requirements for for Structural Concrete The The Unified Design Procedure is is introduced as as an an Appendix. The The Unified Design Procedure is is made the the procedure of of the the Code and and the the previous requirements 2002 become Appendix B. B. WSD is is taken out out completely from ACI ACI ε c =0.003 ε c =0.003 φm n T s = f y A s φm n T s = f y A s ε t = strain in reinf. closest to tension face

The provisions of this chapter shall govern the materials, quality control, design and construction of concrete used in structures Plain and reinforced concrete. Structural concrete shall be designed and constructed in accordance with the requirements of this chapter and ACI318 as amended in Section 1908 of this code. Except for the provisions of Sections 1904 and 1920, the design and construction of slabs on grade shall not be governed by this chapter unless they transmit vertical loads or lateral forces from other parts of the structure to the soil.
