(ACI 318-63) dealt with both methods equally. The 1971 ACI Code (ACI 318-71) was based
fully on the strength approach for proportioning reinforced concrete members, except for a
small section dedicated to what is called the Alternate Design Method. In the 1977 ACI Code
(ACI 318-77) the Alternate Design Method was demoted to Appendix B. It has been
preserved in all editions of the code since 1977, including the 1999 edition mentioned in
Appendix A In the 2002 code edition, the so called Alternate Design Method was taken
out.
A. The Ultimate Strength Design method:
At the present time, the ultimate-strength design method is the method adopted by most
prestigious design code; including the 2005 version of the ACI building code (ACI 318-05).
In this method, elements are designed so that the internal forces produced by factored
loads do not exceed the corresponding strength capacities and allow for some capacity
reduction.
The factored loads are obtained by multiplying the working loads (service loads) by factors
usually greater than unity. The favored mode of failure is the one that ensures a controlled
local failure of members in a ductile rather than brittle manner.
Shortcomings:
1. The use of elastic methods of analysis to determine the internal forces in the
members, which are associated with the factored loads, is inconsistent. This is due to
the fact that when the ultimate load is approached, steel and concrete are no longer
behaving elastically, a basic requirement of the validity of the elastic methods of
design.
2. Regardless of the method of design used, structures are expected to behave
elastically or nearly under normal working loads. Under this condition, the ultimate
strength method cannot be used and the working stress analysis should be made to
determine the deformations and crack widths.

A. Load factors:
Structures, components, and foundations shall be designed so that their design strength
equals or exceeds the effects of the factored loads in the following combinations (ACI318-
2005, 9.2.1)
U = 1.4(D + F) (4.1)
Where
D: Dead load
E: Earthquake load
H: Load due to lateral earth pressure, ground water pressure, or pressure of bulk materials
L: Live load
R: Rain load
S: Snow load
1- Cement:
A cementations material is one that has the adhesive and cohesive properties
necessary to bond inert aggregates into a solid mass of adequate strength and
durability.
Water is needed for the chemical process (hydration) in which the cement powder
sets and hardens into one solid mass. The type that is used widely is known as the
Portland cement.
Concrete made with Portland cement generally needs about two weeks to reach
sufficient strength so that forms of beams and slabs can be removed and reasonable
loads applied. They reach their design strength after 28 days and continue to gain
strength thereafter at a decreasing rate.
2- Aggregate:
Granular material, such as sand, Gravel, crushed stone, and iron blast-furnace slag,
used with a cementing medium to form a hydraulic cement concrete or mortar.
Nominal maximum size of coarse aggregate shall be not larger than:
1/5 the narrowest dimension between sides of forms, nor

Some questionable waters can be used as mixing water but they have to satisfy
some conditions:
Sea water:
o Seawater containing up to 35,000 ppm of dissolved salts is generally suitable
as mixing water for plain concrete.
o Seawater is not suitable for use in making steel reinforced concrete and pre-
stressed concrete due to high risk of steel corrosion
Acid water:
o Acid waters may be accepted as mixing water on the basis of their pH values.
o Use of acid waters with pH values less than 3.0 should be avoided.
o Organic acids, such as tannic acid can have significant effect on strength at
higher concentrations.
Alkaline water:

quantities.

6. Shrinkage:
Shrinkage of concrete is defined as the reduction in volume of concrete due to loss of
moisture. Shrinkage can be reduced through using a low water-cement ratio, good curing of
concrete, nonporous aggregates, shrinkage reinforcement, and expansion-joints.
ACI 7.12.2.1 specifies that a minimum shrinkage and temperature reinforcement ratio of
0.0018 (that have f y 4200kg / cm 2 ) is to be used in slabs where deformed bars or welded
1. Reinforcement steel:
The low tensile strength of plain concrete, a brittle material, results in limited structural
applications since most structural elements carry loads that create tensile stresses of
significant magnitude. The addition of high strength ductile reinforcement that bonds
strongly to concrete produces a tough ductile material capable of transmitting tension and
suitable for constructing many types of structural elements, e.g., slabs, beams, and columns.

B. Modes of failure:
1. Brittle failure:
In this case concrete on compression side reaches the maximum compressive strain before
the reinforcement reaches its yield strain at failure fs< fy c =0.003
2. Balanced section:
Balanced section is the section at which the concrete on compression side reaches its
ultimate strain (c = 0.003) at the same time when the steel in tension side reaches its yield
strain (y = fy/s/Es). This condition gives the position of the neutral axis as follows:
(c/d)balanced= cu/( cu+ y) = 0.003/(0.003+fy/ s/Es) = 600/(600+fy/ s)
3. Ductile failure:
This mode of failure occurs when the reinforcement reaches its yield strain before the
concrete at compression side reaches the maximum compressive strain.
At failure fs= fy c =0.003
