Seminar Description
The 2021 IBC has been available since October 2020. It has been adopted by a few jurisdictions already and will be adopted by the state of California on January 1, 2023. Other major adoptions will follow. The 2021 IBC Chapter 19, Concrete adopts ACI 318-19, whereas ACI 318-14 was the referenced standard in the 2018 IBC.There is a large number of technical changes from ACI 318-14 to ACI 318-19, many of which are quite substantive and some of which are of far-reaching consequences. An overview of the extensive changes will be provided in two 2½ - hour webinars. Part 1 will address changes in the concrete chapter of the 2021 IBC, ACI 318-19 Chapters 1 through 17, and the beginning parts of Chapter 18. Part 2 will discuss changes in the rest of Chapter 18, Chapters 19-27, and Appendix A. Some adjustments in the above divisions may have to be made. Some of the bigger ACI 318-19 changes are:
- Introduction of high-strength reinforcement (80- and 100-ksi yield strength)
- Introduction of reinforcement grade factor in equation for straight bar development length
- New equation for hooked bar development length
- New and simpler one-way shear equations for nonprestressed members
- Updated two-way shear provisions for two-way slabs
- Newly added provisions for screw anchors and shear lugs
- Introduction of shotcrete provisions
- Deep foundation design provisions of IBC/ACE 7 imported into ACI 318
- Extensive and important revisions to Chapter 18, Earthquake-resistant structures
