The American Concrete Institute (ACI) produces numerous documents related to concrete technology in general. ACI committee 349 (Concrete Nuclear Structures) is specifically related to nuclear construction and design. ACI Committee 349 has developed “Code Requirements for Nuclear Safety-Related Concrete Structures (ACI 349-13) and Commentary.” ACI 349-13 references “Building Code Requirements for Reinforced Concrete (ACI 318-08),” which is the basis for the 349 code.

ACI 349 is intended for concrete structures where protection against potential radioactive releases is a concern. This webinar briefly discusses the historical development of ACI 349, the major differences between ACI 349 and ACI 318 code requirements and revisions made to ACI 349-13 since the previously published ACI 349-06 code.

During these webinars there will be discussion and reference to the following documents: 1) ACI 349.1R-07, Reinforced Concrete Design for Thermal Effects on Nuclear Power Plant Structures; 2) ACI 349.2R-07, Guide to the Concrete Capacity Design (CCD) Method—Embedment Design Examples; 3) ACI 349.3R-02, Evaluation of Existing Nuclear Safety-Related Concrete Structures; and 4) ACI 349-13 Code Requirements for Nuclear Safety-Related Concrete Structures. It may be helpful to have these resources handy. If you would like to purchase these items, please visit the ACI Store.
