The ACI 550.3-13 standard defines requirements for a specific type of hybrid special moment frame. These frames consist of precast concrete beams connected to columns that extend past the joints. While these frames do not meet all the prescriptive requirements of ACI 318-11, they have been proven to have reliable strength, energy dissipation, stiffness, and drift capacities through analyses, tests, and reporting in accordance with ACI 374.1.
These special moment frames are suitable for structures categorized as Seismic Design Category (SDC) D, E, or F, as outlined in ACI 318-11. The standard ensures that the characteristic beam-column configurations of these frames satisfy the necessary criteria for these seismic design categories.
