Legal Status of The ACI 318 Code

The ACI 318 code has no legal status unless adopted by astate or local jurisdiction.

It is also recognized that when the ACI code is made part ofa legally adopted general building code, that general buildingcode may modify some provisions of ACI 318 to reflect localconditions and requirements.

The Compatibility Issue in BCP SP-2007

Building Code of Pakistan, Seismic Provision BCP SP-07 has

adopted the seismic provisions of UBC 97 for seismic design of

buildings.

As the UBC 97 has reproduced ACI 318-95 in Chapter 19 on

concrete, the load combinations and strength reduction factors of

ACI 318-02 and later codes are not compatible with UBC 97 and

hence BCP SP-07. Therefore ACI 318-02 and later codes cannot

be used directly for design of a system analyzed according to the

seismic provisions of UBC 97.

22

Prof. Dr. Qaisar Ali Fall 2011

The Compatibility Issue in BCP SP-2007

To resolve this issue, BCP SP-2007 recommends using ACI

318-05 code for design except that load combinations and

strength reduction factors are to be used as per UBC 97.

The IBC adopts the latest ACI code by reference whenever it

is revised and hence are fully compatible.

Limit State and the Design of Reinforced Concrete

Limit State

When a structure or structural element becomes unfit for itsintended use, it is said to have reached a limit state.

The three limit states

1. Ultimate Limit States

2. Serviceability Limit States

3. Special Limit States

15

Department of Civil Engineering, University of Engineering and Technology Peshawar

Prof. Dr. Qaisar Ali Fall 2011

Limit State and the Design of Reinforced Concrete

The Ultimate Limit States

These involve a structural collapse of part or all of thestructure.

Such a limit state should have a very low probability ofoccurrence, since it may lead to loss of life and majorfinancial losses

29

Limit State and the Design of Reinforced Concrete

Serviceability Limit States

These involve disruption of the functional use of thestructure, but not collapse.

Since there is less danger of loss of life, a higher probabilityof occurrences can generally be tolerated than in the caseof an ultimate limit state.

Basic Design Relationship:

The Capacity and Demand

Capacity must be ≥ Demand (in same units)

Demand: An imposed action on structure

Capacity: The overall resistance of structure

Load Effects: Bending, torsion, shear, axial forces,deflection, vibration

35

Department of Civil Engineering, University of Engineering and Technology Peshawar

Prof. Dr. Qaisar Ali Fall 2011

Basic Design Relationship:

The Capacity and Demand

Capacity < Demand is failure

Capacity > Demand is success with FOS

Capacity = Demand is success without FOS

Working Stress Design approach

Capacity is reduced by half

Demand is kept the same

Basic Design Relationship:

Limit State Design approach

Capacity is reduced and demand is increased based onscientific rationale. In LSD approach, we have

Mn ≥ Mu (α Ms )

Vn ≥ Vu (α Vs )

Pn ≥ Pu (α Ps )

Tn ≥ Tu (α Ts )

Structural Safety Variability in Resistance

The actual strengths (resistances) of beams, column, orother structural members will almost always differ from thevalues calculated by the designer (nominal strength). Themain reasons for this are as follows:

variability of the strength of the concrete and reinforcement,

differences between the as-built dimensions and those shown on thestructural drawings,

effects of simplifying assumptions made in deriving the equations formember resistance.

Structural Safety Variability in Loads

All loadings are variables, especially live loads andenvironmental loads due to snow, wind, or earthquakes.

In addition to actual variations in the loads themselves, theassumptions and approximations made in carrying outstructural analysis lead to differences between the actualforces and moments and those computed by the designer.

The average (for 50 % buildings)sustained live load was around13 psf in this sample.

1% of measured loads exceeded44 psf.

Building code specify 50 psf forsuch buildings (ASCE 7-02)

Structural Safety

Conclusion

Due to the variability of resistances and load effects, there isdefinite chance that a weaker-than-average structure will besubjected to a higher- than-average load.

In extreme cases, failure may occur.

The load factors and resistance factors are selected toreduce the probability of failure to a very small level.

Resistance vs. Load Effects

R = The distribution of a population ofresistance of a group of similarstructure.

S = Distribution of the maximum loadeffects, S, expected to occur on thosestructure during their life times

The 45° line in this figure correspondsto a load effect equal to the resistance(S = R).

S > R is failure i.e., load effects greaterthan resistance & S < R is Safety.

Resistance vs. Load Effects

Safety margin can be represented asY = R – S

Graph shows plot between safetymargin (Y) and frequency ofoccurrence (success or failure)

If Y is greater than 0, then safetymargin exists and failure is avoided.

Failure will occur if Y is negative,represented by the shaded area infigure.

Probabilistic Calculation of Safety Factors

The Probability of Failure

The probability of failure, Pf, is thechance that a particular combinationof R and S will give a negative valueof Y.

In normal distribution curve, Pf isequal to the ratio of the shaded areato the total area under the curve infigure.

From the figure, mean value of Y isgiven as Y = 0 + βσY

Where, σY = Standard Deviation; β =1,2,3 …

Probabilistic Calculation of Safety Factors

The Safety Index

Now larger the distance βσY, thelesser will be the negative part andmore will be the positive part in thecurve, which means less chance offailure and more safety. The factor β iscalled the safety index.

More positive part on the curve meansincreasing R. But increase inresistance will require compromise oneconomy.

Prof. Dr. Qaisar Ali Fall 2011

Probabilistic Calculation of Safety Factors

Calculation of Pf: The probability of failure (Pf) which is Probability that (Y = R – S)

< 0, can be calculated by converting the normal distribution(which is function of Y) to standard normal distribution (which is afunction of Z ) and then using standard normal distribution tablesto find the area under the curve

47

Department of Civil Engineering, University of Engineering and Technology Peshawar

Prof. Dr. Qaisar Ali Fall 2011

Probabilistic Calculation of Safety Factors

Calculation of Pf: For β = 3.5, the probability of failure P (Z) = 0.0001 = 0.01 % =

1/9091. (from standard statistics tables)

It means that roughly 1 in every 10,000 structural membersdesigned on the basis that β = 3.5 may fail due to excessive loador under strength sometime during its life time.

48

25

Department of Civil Engineering, University of Engineering and Technology Peshawar

Prof. Dr. Qaisar Ali Fall 2011

Selection of Pf and β

The appropriate values of Pf and hence of β are chosen bybearing in mind the consequences of failure.

Based on current design practice, β is taken between 3 and3.5 for ductile failure with average consequences of failureand between 3.5 and 4 for sudden failure or failures havingserious consequences.

49

Probabilistic Calculation of Safety Factors

Department of Civil Engineering, University of Engineering and Technology Peshawar

Prof. Dr. Qaisar Ali Fall 2011

Probabilistic Calculation of Safety Factors

Selection of Pf and β

In strength design method, weknow that:

γMs = ΦMn, therefore,

Safety factor Mn/ Ms = γ/ Φ

For ΦMn = 1.2MD + 1.6ML

Let ML = MD ; then ΦMn = 2.8MD

Therefore, Safety factor (Mn/MD) =2.8/Φ

For Φ = 0.65 → Mn/ MD = 4.3 ≈ β

For Φ = 0.90 → Mn/ MD = 3.11 ≈ β

Design Procedures Specified in the ACI Code

The Design Philosophy of the ACI Code

9.1.1- structures and structural members shall be designed tohave design strengths at all sections at least equal to therequired strength calculated for the factored loads and forcesin such combinations as are stipulated in this code.

9.1.2- members also shall meet all other requirements of thiscode to ensure adequate performance at service load levels.

51

Department of Civil Engineering, University of Engineering and Technology Peshawar

Prof. Dr. Qaisar Ali Fall 2011

The Design Philosophy of the ACI Code

This process is called strength design in the ACI code.

In the AISC Specifications for steel design, the same design process isknown as LRFD (Load and Resistance Factor Design).

Strength design and LRFD are methods of limit-state design, except thatprimary attention is always placed on the ultimate limit states, with theserviceability limit states being checked after the original design iscompleted.

ACI 318-02, Section 8.2-LOADING:

8.2.2: Service loads shall be in accordance with the generalbuilding code of which this code forms a part, with such liveload reductions as are permitted in the general building code.

Section R8.2 :The provisions in the code are for live, wind, andearthquake loads such as those recommended in “Minimum DesignLoads for Buildings and Other Structures,”(ASCE 7).

If the service loads specified by the general building code (of whichACI 318 forms a part) differ from those of ASCE 7, the general buildingcode governs. However, if the nature of the loads contained in ageneral building code differs considerably from ASCE 7 loads, someprovisions of this code may need modification to reflect the difference.

Design Loads for Buildings and Other Structures

Loads on Structure During Construction

During the construction of concrete buildings, the weight ofthe fresh concrete is supported by formwork, whichfrequently rests on floors lower down in the structure.

ACI section 6.2.2 states the following:

No construction loads exceeding the combination of superimposed deadload plus specified live load (un-factored) shall be supported on any un-shored portion of the structure under construction, unless analysisindicates adequate strength to support such additional loads

Customary Dimensions and Construction Tolerance

Difference in Working and As-Built Drawings’Dimensions The actual as-built dimensions will differ slightly from those

shown on the drawings, due to construction inaccuracies.

ACI Committee 117 has published a comprehensive list oftolerance for concrete construction and materials.

As an example, tolerances for footings are +2 inches and –½ inch on plan dimensions and – 5 percent of the specifiedthickness.
