Calculations for deflection control and crack width limits.
If you’ve been in the structural engineering game for a while, you remember the "Great Reorganization" of 2014. Before then, finding the requirements for a simple beam meant flipping through half a dozen chapters. ACI 318-14 changed all that, and the became the unofficial "Rosetta Stone" for navigating this new world.
Explanations on how to navigate the member-based format.
Clarified responsibilities and detailing rules for construction joints.
The manual includes over 900 pages of detailed coverage, featuring fully worked examples of common structural elements like two-way flat plate floor systems.
Significant updates were made to Chapter 18, particularly regarding special shear walls, following observations from the 2010 Chile and 2011 Christchurch earthquakes.
The PCA notes on ACI 318-14 are a valuable resource for the design and construction of concrete structures. Future directions for the notes include:
Purchase the ACI 318-14 & Commentary (318R-14) directly from the American Concrete Institute.
Introduction Precast/Prestressed Concrete Association (PCA) notes commonly interpret and summarize requirements of ACI 318-14 (Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete) to guide design and fabrication of precast and prestressed concrete elements. These notes highlight clauses in the code most relevant to precast practice, clarify requirements for special systems (eg, prestressing), and recommend best practices for quality control and connections.
: StructurePoint (formerly PCA's engineering software group) provides free technical papers with fully worked design examples using ACI 318-14, such as Simply Supported Reinforced Concrete Beam Analysis and Design . Why the 318-14 Version is "Interesting"
When designing a simply supported reinforced concrete beam using StructurePoint spBeam tools or manual calculation, the PCA Notes guide you through checking the minimum and maximum steel limits: PCA Notes on ACI 318-11 Building Code - ISG Product
The PCA notes on ACI 318-14 provide a comprehensive guide to the code and its application. The notes provide a detailed overview of the code provisions, design examples, and commentary, which can help designers, contractors, and owners to understand and apply the code. The benefits of using the PCA notes on ACI 318-14 include improved understanding, increased efficiency, enhanced safety, and compliance. We hope that this article has provided a useful overview of the PCA notes on ACI 318-14 and their importance in the design and construction of concrete structures.
The PCA Notes meticulously document the technical modifications introduced in this cycle, including:
StructurePoint (formerly PCA engineering software group) provides free, high-quality design examples.

hi Ake,
Thanks for the comment! Yes that’s something I added myself in the extracted JSON rule file, you can either add it too or remove the M code part but if you’re not sure where to remove it I’d advise to add the [severity] in the file like I explained in the post: Here is an example of my rule description: “[Performance] [2] Do not use floating point data types” where [2] is the severity.
hi
i have an issue.
i’ve installed TE 2 and have a model.bim file on my machine and already downloaded bpa.json. but when I run the script in powershell I face this error:
TabularEditor.exe : The term ‘TabularEditor.exe’ is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or
operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try
again.
At line:2 char:1
+ TabularEditor.exe “d:\Model.bim” -A > bparesults.txt
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (TabularEditor.exe:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException
hi Mahdi,
Can you copy/paste your script here
