This study guide contains information on the use of API Standard 1104, Twenty-First Edition, which will assist the student in learning how to use the standard as well as in preparing for code-related examinations. Material is provided for each of the 13 sections of the standard and Annexes A and B. Exercise questions and answers are provided for each section and annex, and additional practice tests are included at the end.

This document provides information to perform the design of the prestressed concrete box girder bridge for road that complies with the limitations established in 6.1. The rules of design as set forth in the document are simplifications of more elaborate requirements. Among several erection methods of box girder bridges, the provisions of this document are mainly applicable to full staging method (FSM).
Designs and details for new road bridges address structural integrity by considering the following:
— the use of continuity and redundancy to provide one or more alternate paths;
— structural members and bearing seat widths that are resistant to damage or instability; and
— external protection systems to minimize the effects of reasonably conceived severe loads.

This standard defines procedures that may be used to design special precast concrete shear walls, coupled or uncoupled, composed of discretely jointed precast panels that are vertically post-tensioned to the foundation with unbonded tendons. Such walls are suitable for use in regions of high seismicity and for structures assigned to high seismic design categories. After a major seismic event, these walls can be expected to exhibit minimal damage in the flexural hinging region at the base of the wall as well as negligible permanent displacements. Such walls do not satisfy the prescriptive requirements of Chapter 18 of ACI 318-14 for shear walls of monolithic construction. According to 18.2.1.7 of ACI 318-14, their acceptance requires demonstration by experimental evidence and analysis that the walls have strength and toughness equal to or exceeding those provided by comparable monolithic reinforced concrete walls that satisfy the prescriptive requirements of Chapter 18. This standard describes the procedures that the designer may use to demonstrate, through analysis, that one type of unbonded post-tensioned precast wall has strength and toughness at least equal to that of comparable special reinforced concrete monolithic walls. The standard consists of Design Requirements and a Commentary.

ACI 550.6-19 Acceptance Criteria for Special Unbonded Post-Tensioned Precast Structural Walls Based on Validation Testing and Commentary (SI & Imperial Units)
This document applies to structures in regions of high seismic risk or to structures assigned to high seismic performance or design categories. It defines the minimum experimental evidence that can be deemed to satisfy the use of unbonded post-tensioned precast structural walls (shear walls) for bearing wall and building frame special reinforced concrete shear wall systems, as defined in ASCE/SEI 7-10, when those walls do not fully satisfy the intent of the prescriptive requirements of Chapter 18 of ACI 318-14. This document includes mandatory Acceptance Criteria and nonmandatory Commentary, and has been written in such a form that its requirements can be coordinated directly with the requirements for special precast structural walls in 18.11 of ACI 318-14. Among the subjects covered are requirements for the procedures that shall be used to design unbonded post-tensioned precast test modules and their configurations, as well as requirements for testing, reporting, and assessing satisfactory performance of the test modules.
The references of the Commentary provide documentary evidence, additional to the references of Chapter 18 of ACI 318R-14, that support the acceptance criteria. Consistent with the approach of ACI 318, no comparison is made, either in the body of the Acceptance Criteria or Commentary, of research results for precast test modules satisfying ACI 318 with those for modules that, although not satisfying ACI 318, do satisfy the Acceptance Criteria. Such comparisons, both experimental and analytical, are available in the Commentary references.
In this document, consistent with the format of ACI 318-14, the word "Section" is not included before a reference to a section of ACI 318-14. To more clearly designate a section in this document, however, the word "Section" is used before any reference to a section of this document.
The section numbering for the Commentary is the same as that for the Standard, with numbers preceded by an "R" and the text in italics to distinguish them from the corresponding section numbers of the Standard.

ACI 549.4R-20: Guide to Design and Construction of Externally Bonded Fabric-Reinforced Cementitious Matrix and Steel-Reinforced Grout Systems for Repair and Strengthening of Concrete Structures
Fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) and steel-reinforced grout (SRG) systems for rehabilitation and strengthening concrete structures is an alternative to traditional techniques such as fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs), steel plate bonding, section enlargement, and external post-tensioning. An FRCM/SRG is a composite material consisting of one or more layers of inorganic matrix reinforced with dry fibers in the form of open mesh or fabric. The inorganic matrixes are typically cement-based, lime-based, or geopolymer. When adhered to concrete structural members, they form an FRCM/SRG system that acts as supplemental, externally bonded reinforcement. This guide addresses the history and use of FRCM and SRG systems rehabilitation and strengthening, their unique material properties, and recommendations on their design, construction, and inspection. Guidelines are based on experimental research, analytical work, and field applications.

This Specification covers the performance requirements for the use of fiber-reinforced concrete in slabs-on-ground and overlays, and includes provisions for the minimum equivalent flexural residual strength required for the fiber-reinforced concrete. It applies to the use of steel, synthetic, and glass macrofiber used to replace reinforcing steel bars and welded-wire reinforcement. This Specification is intended to supplement the requirements presented in ACI 301 and not intended to be a standalone specification. The use of microfibers for plastic shrinkage crack-width control is not covered by this Specification.
