ACI 318-02 Notes

This reference manual, prepared by the Portland Cement Association, assists engineers and designers in applying the ACI building code requirements for structural concrete. The manual assists engineers and architects in the proper application of the 318-02 design standards. The emphasis is placed on "how to use" the code requirements. This manual is also a valuable aid to educators, contractors, materials and products manufacturers, building code authorities, inspectors, and others involved in the design, construction, and regulation of concrete structures.
