The Buildings Department (BD) established the Technical Committee on the Code of Practice for Structural Use of Concrete (TC) in January 2008 for the purpose of collecting views and feedbacks on the use of the Code of Practice for Structural Use of Concrete 2004 (the 2004 Code) from the construction industry and with a view to keeping the code of practice in pace with the advancement in design and technology.
This current Code, namely the Code of Practice for Structural Use of Concrete 2013 (the 2013 Code) is issued after a five-year review work by the TC, which has focused on four fronts: (a) the advancement in design and technology; (b) the experience gained and the views and feedbacks received on the use of the 2004 Code; © the unique characteristics of the properties of local materials, the conditions of the local environment and the practices of the local construction industry; and (d) a series of events that occurred after the 2004 Code was published, such as the issue of the circular letter dated 29 April 2011 by BD on reinforcement fixing details, the carrying out of a comprehensive study on the values of the elastic modulus of concrete by a sub-committee under the TC in 2009, and the issue of Construction Standard CS2:2012.
Although this Code of Practice is not a statutory document, the compliance with the requirements of this Code of Practice is deemed to satisfy the relevant provisions of the Buildings Ordinance and related regulations.
The contributions and efforts given by the invited members of the technical committee in the preparation of the 2013 Code are greatly appreciated.
