“Structural Welded Wire Reinforcement Detailing
Manual,” Wire Reinforcement Institute, Hartford, CT,
1994, 252 pp. (The manual, in addition to including ACI 318
provisions and design aids, also includes: detailing guidance
on welded wire reinforcement in one-way and two-way
slabs; precast/prestressed
concrete components; columns
and beams; cast-in-place walls; and slabs-on-ground. In
addition, there are tables to compare areas and spacings of
high-strength welded wire with conventional reinforcing.)
“Strength Design of Reinforced Concrete Columns,”
Portland Cement Association, Skokie, IL, 1978, 48 pp. (This
provides design tables of column strength in terms of load in
kips versus moment in ft-kips for concrete strength of 5000 psi
and Grade 60 reinforcement. Design examples are included.
Note that the PCA design tables do not include the strength
reduction
factor
φ
in the tabulated values;
M
u
/
φ
and
P
u
/
φ
must be used when designing with this aid.)
“PCI Design Handbook—Precast and Prestressed
Concrete,” Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute, Chicago, IL,
6th Edition, 2004, 736 pp. (This provides load tables for
common
industry products, and procedures for design and
analysis of precast and prestressed elements and structures
composed of these elements. Provides design aids and examples.)
“Design and Typical Details of Connections for Precast and
Prestressed Concrete,” Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute,
Chicago, IL, 2nd Edition, 1988, 270 pp. (This updates available
information on design of connections for both structural and
architectural
products, and presents a full spectrum of typical
details. This provides design aids and examples.)
“Post-Tensioning Manual,” Post-Tensioning Institute,
Phoenix, AZ, 6th Edition, 2006, 354 pp. (This provides
comprehensive coverage
of post-tensioning systems, speci-
fications, design aids, and construction concepts.)
