27、ndThe origin of ACIs Innovation Task Group (ITG) 4,High-Strength Concrete for Seismic Applications, can betraced back to an International Conference of BuildingOfficials (ICBO) (now International Code Council ICC)Evaluation Report titled “Seismic Design Utilizing High-Strength Concrete (ER-5536)” (I

28、CC Evaluation Service, Inc.2004). Evaluation Reports (ERs) are issued by EvaluationService subsidiaries of model code groups. An ER essentiallystates that, although a particular method, process, or productis not specifically addressed by a particular edition of acertain model code, it is in complian

29、ce with the requirementsof that particular edition of that model code.ER-5536, first issued in April 2001, was generated for theseismic design of moment-resisting frame elements usinghigh-strength concrete. High-strength concrete was defined as“normalweight concrete with a design compressive strengt

30、hgreater than 6000 psi (41.3 MPa) and up to a maximum of12,000 psi (82.7 MPa).” It was based on research carried outat the University of Southern California and the University ofCalifornia at San Diego to support building construction inSouthern California using concrete with compressivestrengths gr

31、eater than 6000 psi (41 MPa). ER-5536 is avail-able on the ICC website (http:/www.icc-es.org/).The Portland Cement Association (PCA) performed areview of the aforementioned document,*which brought upseveral concerns that focused on inconsistencies between theER and existing industry documents in two

32、 primary areas:material and structural aspects. Irrespective of thoseconcerns, it was evident that the ER had been created becausequality assurance and design provisions are needed by localjurisdictions in cities such as Los Angeles to allow the use ofhigh-strength concrete in a safe manner. ACI has

33、 assumed aproactive role in the development of such provisions with thegoal of creating a document that can be adopted nationwide.Within ACI, Committee 363, High Strength Concrete, wasconsidered the best choice to develop the section addressingmaterials quality considerations aspects of the document

34、,while ACI Committee 318-H, Structural Concrete BuildingCodeSeismic Provisions, was considered the logicalchoice to address seismic detailing aspects. Because ACICommittee 318-H is a subcommittee of a code-writing body,the development of a technical document of this kind is notpart of its intended m

35、ission. Also, producing a document bya technical committee is typically a lengthy process. Basedon these limitations, a request was made to form an InnovationTask Group (ITG) that would have the advantage ofcompleting the desired product within a shorter timeline. Inresponse to the request, the Tech

36、nical Activities Committee(TAC) of ACI approved the formation of ITG 4. Followingthe approval by TAC, David Darwin, then Chair of the TACTechnology Transfer Committee (TTTC), established themission of the ITG. The mission is to develop an ACI documentthat addresses the application of high-strength c

37、oncrete instructures located in areas of moderate and high seismicity.The document is intended to cover structural design, materialproperties, construction procedures, and quality-controlmeasures. It is to be written or contain example language ina format that will allow building officials to approv

38、e the useof high-strength concrete in projects that are beingconstructed under the provisions of ACI 301 and 318.*Unpublished report available from PCA, Skokie, Ill., Aug. 2001.MATERIALS AND QUALITY CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGH-STRENGTH CONCRETE ITG-4.2R-3The concept of “areas of moderate and high seismi

39、city”goes back to the days when U.S. seismic codes used to dividethe country into seismic zones, which were regions in whichseismic ground motion on rock, corresponding to a certainprobability of occurrence, was within certain ranges. Giventhat public safety is a primary code objective and that not

40、allbuildings in a given seismic zone are equally crucial topublic safety, a new mechanism for triggering seismic designrequirements and restrictions, called the seismic performancecategory (SPC), was developed. The SPC classificationincluded not only the seismicity at the site, but also theoccupancy

41、 of the structure. Recognizing that building perfor-mance during a seismic event depends not only on the severityof subsurface rock motion, but also on the type of soil uponwhich a structure is founded, seismic design criteria in morerecent seismic codes are based on seismic design categories(SDCs).

42、 The SDC is a function of location, building occupancy,and soil type. The TTTC-established mission of ITG 4 isinterpreted to mean that the task group is to address theapplication of high-strength concrete in structures:Located in Seismic Zones 2, 3, or 4 of the “UniformBuilding Code”;Assigned to SPC

43、s C, D, or E of the “BOCA/NationalBuilding Code” (1993 and subsequent editions) or the“Standard Building Code” (1994 or subsequenteditions); orSDCs C, D, E, or F of the “International BuildingCode” or the National Fire Protection Association(NFPA) 5000 “Building Construction and Safety Code.”SPC or

44、SDC C is also referred to as the “intermediate”SPCs or SDCs. Similarly, SPCs D and E or SDCs D, E, andF are referred to as “high” SPCs or SDCs. The terminology,“moderate to high seismic applications,” however, is usedthroughout the ITG 4 documents.When TAC approved the formation of ITG 4, the approv

45、alwas to “create a nonmandatory standard on the use of high-strength concrete in moderate to high seismic applications.”After some discussion at the TTTC meeting that followed, aconcern was raised that a nonmandatory standard might notbe able to fully satisfy the goals of the ITG, specificallyprovid

46、ing a document that could be implemented with theapproval of a building official.1.2ScopeThe ITG 4 document series addresses the material and designconsiderations when using cast-in-place normalweightconcretes having specified compressive strengths of 6000psi (41 MPa) or greater in structures that m

47、ust be designedfor moderate to high seismic applications. Irrespective ofseismic zone, SPC, or SDC, the ITG-4 document series isalso applicable to cast-in-place normalweight high-strengthconcrete in intermediate or special moment frames and inter-mediate or special structural walls as defined in ACI

48、 318.The term “high-strength concrete,” as defined by ACICommittee 363, refers to concrete having a specifiedcompressive strength for design of 8000 psi (55 MPa) orgreater. The lower 6000 psi (41 MPa) threshold was chosenfor the ITG-4 documents because they deal with a specializedapplication of high

49、-strength concrete application in areas ofmoderate to high seismicity.Even though high-strength concrete is defined based on athreshold compressive strength, the concept of “highstrength” is relative. The limit at which concrete is consideredto be “high-strength” depends largely on the location in whichit is being used. For example, in some regions, structures areroutinely designed with concrete having specified compressivestrengths of 12,000 psi (83 MPa) or higher, whereas in otherregions, concrete with a much lower specified c
