Background
Provisions dispersed
Mixed in with design provisions
Some provisions required interpretation
Often difficult to tell when all construction
provisions were met
WWW.CONCRETE.ORG/ACI318

Why?
Increased awareness and clarity
Confusion regarding how ACI 318 was intended
to be used
Avoid general compliance statements

Compliance requirements
General provisions
Minimum quality levels
LDP selects the requirements that are
applicable
ACI 301 is consistent with the compliance
requirements in Chapter 26
Example: Allowable ASTM specifications for
cement
