ACI 370R-14 PDF Download

ACI 370R-14 is a standard that focuses on the design considerations and guidelines for concrete structures subjected to blast effects. The standard recognizes the importance of the integrity of reinforcement in ensuring the strength, ductility, and safety of reinforced concrete structures. It emphasizes the need to determine the necessity of additional or replacement reinforcement in rehabilitation projects, especially in cases where corrosion of reinforcing steel has occurred. This indicates that the standard not only addresses the design aspects but also takes into account the potential deterioration of reinforcement due to corrosion.
