2008 Building Code Requirements & Specification for Masonry Structures and Related Commentaries - ACI 530-08 (TMS 402-08 / ACI 530-08 / ASCE 5-08)
Outlines the Building Code Requirements for Masonry Structures
The "Building Code Requirements for Masonry Structures (TMS 402-08/ACI 530-08/ASCE 5-08)" covers the design and construction of masonry structures. It is written in such form that it may be adopted by reference in a legally adopted building code.
The "Specification for Masonry Structures (TMS 602-08/ACI 530.1-08/ASCE 6-08)" is a reference specification and is required by "Building Code Requirements for Masonry Structures (TMS 402-08/ACI 530-08/ASCE 5-08)" to specify materials, labor, and construction. Thus, this specification covers minimum construction requirements for masonry in structures. Included are quality, inspection, testing, and placement of materials; the placing, bonding, and anchoring of masonry; and the placement of grout and reinforcement. This specification is intended to be referenced in the project specifications. Individual project requirements may supplement the provisions of this specification.

2005 Building Code Requirements for Masonry Structures (ACI 530-05 / ASCE 5-05 / TMS 402-05
This code covers the design and construction of masonry structures. It is written in such form that it may be adopted by reference in a legally adopted building code. Among the subjects covered are: definitions; contract documents; quality assurance; materials; placement of embedded items; analysis and design; strength and serviceability; flexureal and axial loads; shear; details and development of reinforcement; walls; columns; pilasters; beams and lintels; seismic design requirements; glass unit masonry; and veneers.

Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete and Commentary ACI 318-05 / 318R-05
ACI 318 is a must-have standard for all concrete design, construction, inspection, repair, and research professionals. ACI 318-05 contains the latest code requirements for concrete building design and construction. The companion commentary is a side-by-side column format to match the corresponding code requirements. The commentary provides some of the considerations of the committee in developing code provisions. This edition of the ACI Building Code is deemed to satisfy the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 19338, Performance Assessment Requirements for Design Standards on Structural Concrete.

Design of Reinforced Concrete
How to Apply the Concepts of Reinforced Concrete Updated to ACI 318-08
With its accessible approach and streamlined coverage of theory, engineers will quickly learn how to apply the concepts in the eighth edition. The contents have been updated to conform to the 2008 building code of the American Concrete Institute (ACI 318-08). New spreadsheets are included that arm the reader with tools to analyze and design reinforced concrete elements and quickly compare alternative solutions. A new chapter on seismic design explores the issues related to the design of reinforced concrete structures to resist earthquakes. The new materials section also provides engineers with details and examples on how to design shear walls for combined axial load and bending moment

Reinforced Concrete Design - 7th Edition
Learn The Basic Concepts of Applying the ACI 318-05 Code Rules and Formulas
Now revised to ACI 318-05 code, this thoroughly updated Seventh Edition of Chu-Kia Wang, Charles G. Salmon, and José A. Pincheira's Reinforced Concrete Design incorporates the changes in design rules arising from the publication of the 2005 American Concrete Institute (ACI) Building Code and Commentary (ACI 318-05).
