The document includes nearly 50 codes and specifications and more than 200 practices. The ACI Collection features ACI 318 “Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete,” ACI 301 “Specifications for Structural Concrete,” and ACI 562 “Code Requirements for Assessment, Repair, and Rehabilitation of Existing Concrete Structures and Commentary.”
Additional categories include concrete materials, properties, design, construction, reinforcement, specialized application, repair, structural analysis, and innovation, plus popular topics such as slabs, formwork, and masonry.
“The ACI Collection is the most comprehensive and largest single source of information on concrete design, construction, and materials,” according to an ACI news release. The ACI Collection is available as an online subscription, a USB drive, and a nine-volume set of books.
