The American Concrete Institute (ACI) 318, Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete and Commentary provides minimum requirements for the materials, design, and detailing of structural concrete buildings and, where applicable, nonbuilding structures.

The “Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete” (“Code”) provides minimum requirements for the materials, design, and detailing of structural concrete buildings and, where applicable, nonbuilding structures.

This Technical Note details the requirements of ACI318-14 for design of concrete floor systems, with emphasis on post-tensioning and their implementation in the ADAPT Builder Platform programs. The implementation follows the ACI Codes procedure of calculating a Demand, referred to as ^design value for

"ACI 318-14 supersede ACI 318-11, was adopted August 29, 2014, and published September 2014."

What does the reorganized 318-14 look like? 6.9.1 — Finite element analysis to determine load effects shall be permitted. R6.9.1 — This section was introduced in the 2014 Code to explicitly recognize a widely used analysis method. 6.9.2 — The finite element model shall be appropriate for its intended purpose.

ACI 318-14 is published in a completely reorganized format. Now organized from the designer perspective, this 2014 edition includes more tables and charts, a consistent structure for each member chapter, fewer cross references, a dedicated chapter on construction requirements, and new chapters on structural systems and diaphragms.

The Structural Concrete Code, 2014 (ACI 318, 2014) is a code produced by the American Concrete Institute (ACI). This document provides the foundation for many state and city codes. The ACI 318, 2014 combined with local jurisdiction amendments form the state codes.

The American Concrete Institute (ACI) published the Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete (ACI 318-14) and Commentary (ACI 318R-14) in the Fall of 2014. ACI 318-14 has been adopted by reference into the 2015 International Building Code (IBC).
