Standard Requirements for Seismic Evaluation and Retrofit of Existing Concrete Buildings (ACI 369.1M-17) and Commentary
Also Known As:
ACI 369.1M-17 is a standard that provides criteria for the seismic evaluation and retrofit of existing concrete buildings. It is designed to be used in conjunction with ASCE 41-17, which provides general requirements for evaluation and retrofit.
The standard is based on the most recent research on the seismic performance of existing concrete buildings. It serves as a resource document for modifications to Chapter 10 of ASCE 41-17, similar to how FEMA 450 has served as a source document for the International Building Code.
The standard covers various aspects of evaluation and retrofit, including the selection of performance objectives and retrofit strategies, as well as screening procedures, analysis procedures, and geotechnical engineering provisions.
It is important to note that ACI 369.1M-17 does not include repair techniques for earthquake-damaged concrete components. Design professionals are referred to other resources, such as FEMA 306, FEMA 307, and FEMA 308, for information on the evaluation and repair of damaged concrete wall components.
