ACI SP-117:1989 PDF Download

ACI SP-117:1989 is a standard that provides valuable information and techniques for assessing the long-term serviceability of concrete structures. It contains a wide range of topics related to the performance and durability of concrete structures, covering areas such as storage structures, temperature-induced crack patterns, seismic design, column shortening, in-situ performance, time-dependent behavior, rehabilitation, maintenance-free bridge deck, effects of support settlement, shrinkage problems, design aid for predicting shrinkage and creep strains, and long-term durability considerations for nuclear power plant structures.

The standard features contributions from several experts in the field, with each chapter addressing a specific topic. The topics in this standard cover various aspects of concrete structures, including their behavior over time, the effects of environmental conditions, and the challenges they may face in terms of durability and performance.
