COMMENTARY | |
Chapter 18 in addition to all other applicable requirements | |
of this Code. | |
Sections 18.2.1.3 through 18.2.1.5 identify those parts of | |
Chapter 18 that apply to the building based on its assigned | |
SDC, regardless of the vertical elements of the seismic-force- | |
resisting system. ASCE/SEI 7 defines the permissible | |
vertical elements of the seismic-force-resisting system and | |
applies where adopted. The remaining commentary of R18.2 | |
summarizes the intent of ACI 318 regarding which vertical | |
elements should be permissible in a building considering | |
its SDC. Section 18.2.1.6 defines the requirements for the | |
vertical elements of the seismic-force-resisting system. | |
The design and detailing requirements should be compatible | |
with the level of inelastic response assumed in the calculation | |
of the design earthquake forces. The terms “ordinary,” | |
“intermediate,” and “special” are used to facilitate this | |
compatibility. For any given structural element or system, | |
the terms “ordinary,” “intermediate,” and “special,” refer | |
to increasing requirements for detailing and proportioning, | |
with expectations of increased deformation capacity. Structures | |
assigned to SDC B are not expected to be subjected | |
to strong ground motion, but instead are expected to experience | |
low levels of ground motion at long time intervals. | |
This Code provides some requirements for beam-column | |
ordinary moment frames to improve deformation capacity. | |
Structures assigned to SDC C may be subjected to moderately | |
strong ground motion. The designated seismic-force-resisting | |
system typically comprises some combination of | |
ordinary cast-in-place structural walls, intermediate precast | |
structural walls, and intermediate moment frames. The | |
general building code also may contain provisions for use | |
of other seismic-force-resisting systems in SDC C. Provision | |
18.2.1.6 defines requirements for whatever system is | |
selected. | |
Structures assigned to SDC D, E, or F may be subjected to | |
strong ground motion. It is the intent of ACI Committee 318 | |
that the seismic-force-resisting system of structural concrete | |
buildings assigned to SDC D, E, or F be provided by special | |
moment frames, special structural walls, or a combination | |
of the two. In addition to 18.2.2 through 18.2.8, these structures | |
also are required to satisfy requirements for continuous | |
inspection (26.13.1.3), diaphragms and trusses (18.12), foundations | |
(18.13), and gravity-load-resisting elements that are | |
not designated as part of the seismic-force-resisting system | |
(18.14). These provisions have been developed to provide | |
the structure with adequate deformation capacity for the | |
high demands expected for these seismic design categories. | |
The general building code may also permit the use of intermediate | |
moment frames as part of dual systems for some | |
buildings assigned to SDC D, E, or F. It is not the intent | |
of ACI Committee 318 to recommend the use of intermediate | |
moment frames as part of moment-resisting frame or | |
dual systems in SDC D, E, or F. The general building code | |
may also permit substantiated alternative or nonprescriptive | |
designs or, with various supplementary provisions, the use | |
=== 18.2.1.2 All members shall satisfy Chapters 1 to 17 and | |
19 to 26. Structures assigned to SDC B, C, D, E, or F also | |
shall satisfy 18.2.1.3 through 18.2.1.7, as applicable. Where | |
Chapter 18 conflicts with other chapters of this Code, | |
Chapter 18 shall govern. | |
=== 18.2.1.3 Structures assigned to SDC B shall satisfy 18.2.2 . | |

18.2.2 through 18.2.8 and 18.12 through 18.14. | |
=== 18.2.1.6 Structural systems designated as part of the | |
seismic-force-resisting system shall be restricted to those | |
designated by the general building code, or determined by | |
other authority having jurisdiction in areas without a legally | |
adopted building code. Except for SDC A, for which Chapter | |
18 does not apply, (a) through (h) shall be satisfied for each | |
structural system designated as part of the seismic-forceresisting | |
system, in addition to 18.2.1.3 through 18.2.1.5: | |
| |
(a) Ordinary moment frames shall satisfy 18.3 | |
(b) Ordinary reinforced concrete structural walls need | |
not satisfy any detailing provisions in Chapter 18, unless | |
required by 18.2.1.3 or 18.2.1.4 | |
(c) Intermediate moment frames shall satisfy 18.4 | |
(d) Intermediate precast walls shall satisfy 18.5 | |
(e) Special moment frames shall satisfy 18.2.3 through | |
18.2.8 and 18.6 through 18.8 | |
(f) Special moment frames constructed using precast | |
concrete shall satisfy 18.2.3 through 18.2.8 and 18.9 | |
(g) Special structural walls shall satisfy 18.2.3 through | |
18.2.8 and 18.10 | |
(h) Special structural walls constructed using precast | |
concrete shall satisfy 18.2.3 through 18.2.8 and 18.11 | |
| |
=== 18.2.1.7 A reinforced concrete structural system not satisfying | |
this chapter shall be permitted if it is demonstrated by | |
experimental evidence and analysis that the proposed system | |
will have strength and toughness equal to or exceeding those | |
provided by a comparable reinforced concrete structure | |
satisfying this chapter. | |

of ordinary or intermediate systems for nonbuilding structures | |
in the higher seismic design categories. These are not | |
the typical applications that were considered in the writing | |
of this chapter, but wherever the term “ordinary or intermediate | |
moment frame” is used in reference to reinforced | |
concrete, 18.3 or 18.4 apply. | |
Table 18.2 summarizes the applicability of the provisions | |
of Chapter 18 as they are typically applied when using | |
the minimum requirements in the various seismic design | |
categories. Where special systems are used for structures in | |
SDC B or C, it is not required to satisfy the requirements | |
of 18.14, although it should be verified that members not | |
designated as part of the seismic-force-resisting system will | |
be stable under design displacements. | |

The proportioning and detailing requirements in Chapter | |
18 are based predominantly on field and laboratory experience | |
with monolithic reinforced concrete building structures | |
and precast concrete building structures designed | |
and detailed to behave like monolithic building structures. | |
Extrapolation of these requirements to other types of castin- | |
place or precast concrete structures should be based on | |
evidence provided by field experience, tests, or analysis. The | |
acceptance criteria for moment frames given in ACI 374.1 can | |
be used in conjunction with Chapter 18 to demonstrate that the | |

COMMENTARY | |
strength, energy dissipation capacity, and deformation capacity | |
of a proposed frame system equals or exceeds that provided | |
by a comparable monolithic concrete system. ACI ITG-5.1M | |
provides similar information for precast wall systems. | |
The toughness requirement in 18.2.1.7 refers to the | |
requirement to maintain structural integrity of the entire | |
seismic-force-resisting system at lateral displacements | |
anticipated for the maximum considered earthquake motion. | |
Depending on the energy-dissipation characteristics of the | |
structural system used, such displacements may be larger | |
than for a monolithic reinforced concrete structure satisfying | |
the prescriptive provisions of other parts of this Code. | |
CODE | |
== 18.2.2 Analysis and proportioning of structural members | |
=== 18.2.2.1 The interaction of all structural and nonstructural | |
members that affect the linear and nonlinear response of the | |
structure to earthquake motions shall be considered in the | |
analysis. | |
=== 18.2.2.2 Rigid members assumed not to be a part of the | |
seismic-force-resisting system shall be permitted provided | |
their effect on the response of the system is considered in | |
the structural design. Consequences of failure of structural | |
and nonstructural members that are not a part of the seismicforce- | |
resisting system shall be considered. | |
=== 18.2.2.3 Structural members extending below the base of | |
structure that are required to transmit forces resulting from | |
earthquake effects to the foundation shall comply with the | |
requirements of Chapter 18 that are consistent with the | |
seismic-force-resisting system above the base of structure. | |
== R18.2.2 Analysis and proportioning of structural members | |
It is assumed that the distribution of required strength to the | |
various components of a seismic-force-resisting system will | |
be determined from the analysis of a linearly elastic model of | |
the system acted upon by the factored forces, as required by | |
the general building code. If nonlinear response history analyses | |
are to be used, base motions should be selected after a | |
detailed study of the site conditions and local seismic history. | |
Because the basis for earthquake-resistant design admits | |
nonlinear response, it is necessary to investigate the stability of | |
the seismic-force-resisting system, as well as its interaction with | |
other structural and nonstructural members, under expected | |
lateral displacements corresponding to maximum considered | |
earthquake ground motion. For lateral displacement calculations, | |
assuming all the structural members to be fully cracked is | |
likely to lead to better estimates of the possible drift than using | |
uncracked stiffness for all members. The analysis assumptions | |
described in 6.6.3.1 may be used to estimate lateral deflections | |
of reinforced concrete building systems. | |
The main objective of Chapter 18 is the safety of the structure. | |
The intent of 18.2.2.1 and 18.2.2.2 is to draw attention | |
to the influence of nonstructural members on structural | |
response and to hazards from falling objects. | |
Section 18.2.2.3 serves as an alert that the base of structure as | |
defined in analysis may not necessarily correspond to the foundation | |
or ground level. Details of columns and walls extending | |
below the base of structure to the foundation are required to be | |
consistent with those above the base of structure. | |
In selecting member sizes for earthquake-resistant structures, | |
it is important to consider constructibility problems | |
related to congestion of reinforcement. The design should | |
be such that all reinforcement can be assembled and placed | |
in the proper location and that concrete can be cast and | |
consolidated properly. Using the upper limits of permitted | |
reinforcement ratios may lead to construction problems. | |
== 18.2.3 Anchoring to concrete | |
=== 18.2.3.1 Anchors resisting earthquake-induced forces in | |
structures assigned to SDC C, D, E, or F shall be in accordance | |
with 17.10. | |

== 18.2.4 Strength reduction factors | |
=== 18.2.4.1 Strength reduction factors shall be in accordance | |
with Chapter 21. | |
== R18.2.4 Strength reduction factors | |
=== R18.2.4.1 Chapter 21 contains strength reduction factors | |
for all members, joints, and connections of earthquake-resistant | |
structures, including specific provisions in 21.2.4 for | |
buildings that use special moment frames, special structural | |
walls, and intermediate precast walls. | |
== 18.2.5 Concrete in special moment frames and special | |
structural walls | |
=== 18.2.5.1 Specified compressive strength of concrete in | |
special moment frames and special structural walls shall be | |
in accordance with the special seismic systems requirements | |
of Table 9.2.1.1 . | |
== R18.2.5 Concrete in special moment frames and special | |
structural walls | |
Requirements of this section refer to concrete quality in | |
frames and walls that resist earthquake-induced forces. The | |
maximum specified compressive strength of lightweight | |
concrete to be used in structural design calculations is limited | |
to 35 MPa, primarily because of paucity of experimental and | |
field data on the behavior of members made with lightweight | |
concrete subjected to displacement reversals in the nonlinear | |
range. If convincing evidence is developed for a specific | |
application, the limit on maximum specified compressive | |
strength of lightweight concrete may be increased to a level | |
justified by the evidence. | |
== 18.2.6 Reinforcement in special moment frames and | |
special structural walls | |
=== 18.2.6.1 Reinforcement in special moment frames and | |
special structural walls shall be in accordance with the | |
special seismic systems requirements of 20.2.2. | |
== R18.2.6 Reinforcement in special moment frames and | |
special structural walls | |
=== R18.2.6.1 Nonprestressed reinforcement for seismic | |
systems is required to meet 20.2.2.4 and 20.2.2.5. Starting | |
with ACI 318-19, ASTM A706 Grades 550 and 690 reinforcement | |
is permitted to resist moments, axial, and shear | |
forces in special structural walls and all components of | |
special structural walls, including coupling beams and | |
wall piers. ASTM A706 Grade 550 reinforcement is also | |
permitted in special moment frames. Results of tests and | |
analytical studies presented in NIST (2014) and Sokoli and | |
Ghannoum (2016) indicate that properly detailed beams and | |
columns of special moment frames with ASTM A706 Grade | |
550 reinforcement exhibit strength and deformation capacities | |
similar to those of members reinforced with Grade 420 | |
reinforcement. The use of Grade 690 reinforcement is not | |
allowed in special moment frames because there is insufficient | |
data to demonstrate satisfactory seismic performance. | |
To allow the use of ASTM A706 Grades 550 and 690 | |
reinforcement, the 2019 Code includes limits for spacing of | |
transverse reinforcement to provide adequate longitudinal | |
bar support to control longitudinal bar buckling. In special | |
moment frames, the use of Grade 550 reinforcement requires | |
increased joint depths to prevent excessive slip of beam bars | |
passing through beam-column joints (18.8.2.3). | |
The requirement for a tensile strength greater than the yield | |
strength of the reinforcement ( 20.2.2.5 , Table 0.2.1.3 (b)) is | |
based on the assumption that the capability of a structural | |
member to develop inelastic rotation capacity is a function | |
of the length of the yield region along the axis of the | |
member. In interpreting experimental results, the length of | |

COMMENTARY | |
the yield region has been related to the relative magnitudes | |
of nominal and yield moments (ACI 352R). According to | |
this interpretation, the greater the ratio of nominal to yield | |
moment, the longer the yield region. Chapter 20 requires | |
that the ratio of actual tensile strength to actual yield strength | |
be at least 1.25 for ASTM A615 Grade 420. | |
The restrictions on the value of fyt apply to all types of | |
transverse reinforcement, including spirals, circular hoops, | |
rectilinear hoops, and crossties. Research results (Budek | |
et al. 2002; Muguruma and Watanabe 1990; Sugano et al. | |
1990) indicate that higher yield strengths can be used effectively | |
as confinement reinforcement as specified in 18.7.5.4. | |
The increases to 550 and 690 MPa for shear design of some | |
special seismic system members is based on research indicating | |
the design shear strength can be developed (Wallace | |
1998; Aoyama 2001; Budek et al. 2002; Sokoli and Ghannoum | |
2016; Cheng et al. 2016; Huq et al. 2018; Weber- | |
Kamin et al. 2019). The 420 MPa restriction on the value of | |
fyt for deformed bar in 20.2.2.4 for calculating nominal shear | |
strength is intended to limit the width of shear cracks at | |
service-level loads. Service-level cracking is not a concern | |
in members of the seismic-force-resisting system subjected | |
to design-level earthquake forces. | |
CODE | |
== 18.2.7 Mechanical splices in special moment frames and | |
special structural walls | |
== R18.2.7 Mechanical splices in special moment frames and | |
special structural walls | |
In a structure undergoing inelastic deformations during | |
an earthquake, the tensile stresses in reinforcement may | |
approach the tensile strength of the reinforcement. The | |
requirements for Type 2 mechanical splices are intended to | |
avoid a splice failure when the reinforcement is subjected to | |
expected stress levels in yielding regions. Type 1 mechanical | |
splices on any grade of reinforcement and Type 2 mechanical | |
splices on Grade 550 and Grade 690 reinforcement | |
may not be capable of resisting the stress levels expected in | |
yielding regions. The locations of these mechanical splices | |
are restricted because tensile stresses in reinforcement in | |
yielding regions can exceed the strength requirements of | |
18.2.7.1. The restriction on all Type 1 mechanical splices | |
and on Type 2 mechanical splices on Grade 550 and Grade | |
690 reinforcement applies to all reinforcement resisting | |
earthquake effects, including transverse reinforcement. | |
Recommended detailing practice would preclude the | |
use of splices in regions of potential yielding in members | |
resisting earthquake effects. If use of mechanical splices in | |
regions of potential yielding cannot be avoided, there should | |
be documentation on the actual strength characteristics of the | |
bars to be spliced, on the force-deformation characteristics | |
of the spliced bar, and on the ability of the mechanical splice | |
to be used to meet the specified performance requirements. | |
Although mechanical splices as defined by 18.2.7 need not | |
be staggered, staggering is encouraged and may be necessary | |
for constructibility or provide enough space around the splice | |
for installation or to meet the clear spacing requirements. | |

(b) Type 2 – Mechanical splice conforming to 25.5.7 and | |
capable of developing the specified tensile strength of the | |
spliced bars | |

420 reinforcement, mechanical splices shall not be located | |
within a distance equal to twice the member depth from the | |
column or beam face for special moment frames or from | |
critical sections where yielding of the reinforcement is likely | |
to occur as a result of lateral displacements beyond the linear | |
range of behavior. Type 2 mechanical splices on Grade 420 | |
reinforcement shall be permitted at any location, except as | |
noted in 18.9.2.1(c). | |

== R18.2.8 Welded splices in special moment frames and | |
special structural walls | |
=== R18.2.8.1 Welding of reinforcement should be in accordance | |
with AWS D1.4 as required in Chapter 26. The locations | |
of welded splices are restricted because reinforcement | |
tension stresses in yielding regions can exceed the strength | |
requirements of 25.5.7. The restriction on welded splices | |
applies to all reinforcement resisting earthquake effects, | |
including transverse reinforcement. | |
=== R18.2.8.2 Welding of crossing reinforcing bars can lead | |
to local embrittlement of the steel. If welding of crossing | |
bars is used to facilitate fabrication or placement of reinforcement, | |
it should be done only on bars added for such | |
purposes. The prohibition of welding crossing reinforcing | |
bars does not apply to bars that are welded with welding | |
operations under continuous, competent control, as in the | |
manufacture of welded-wire reinforcement. | |
