ACI 363.2R: Guide to Quality Control and Assurance of High-Strength Concrete
Abstract: This guide discusses QC and testing practices of HSC. HSC usually is associated with structures that have been optimized for performance. Therefore, a high degree of confidence in concrete quality should be achieved through ...
ACI 369R: Guide for Seismic Rehabilitation of Existing Concrete Frame Buildings and Commentary
Abstract: This guide describes methods for estimating the seismic performance of concrete components in an existing building. The guide is intended to be used with the analysis procedures and Rehabilitation Objectives (ROs) established ...
ACI ITG-5.1M: Acceptance Criteria for Special Unbonded Post-Tensioned Precast Structural Walls Based on Validation Testing and Commentary
Abstract: Scope and general requirements
While only ACI Committee 318 can specify the requirements necessary for unbonded post-tensioned precast walls to meet the provisions of 21.2.1.5 of ACI 318M, 1.4 of ACI 318M permits the building official to accept precast wall systems, other than those explicitly covered by Chapter 21 of ACI 318M,...

ACI 437.1R: Load Tests of Concrete Structures: Methods, Magnitude, Protocols, and Acceptance Criteria
Abstract: Introduction
The provisions of Chapter 20 of ACI 318 have remained essentially unchanged for an unprecedented period of time since the publication of ACI 318-71, when the code was changed from working stress design to ultimate strength design. Before the 1971 code, the test load requirements or acceptance criteria were revised ...
