ACI CODE-318-25: Building Code for Structural Concrete—Code Requirements and Commentary (ACI CODE-318-25)

ACI 318-25 Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete and Commentary establishes minimum material, design and detailing requirements for structural concrete buildings and applicable nonbuilding structures. It covers structural systems, members and connections using cast-in-place, precast, shotcrete, plain, nonprestressed and prestressed concrete.

Topics include strength, serviceability and durability; load combinations and design factors; structural analysis and deflection limits; anchoring to concrete; reinforcement development and splicing; construction documents; field inspection and testing; and strength evaluation of existing structures. Appendices address design verification through nonlinear response history analysis, performance-based wind design, and sustainability and resilience.
