The document discusses the differences between ACI 301, which is intended for structural concrete in buildings, and ACI 350.5, which is intended for structural concrete in liquid-containing structures and has additional requirements due to the aggressive environments. ACI 350.5 provides specifications for contractors building liquid-containing structures, covering areas like material requirements, shotcrete, and prestressed reinforcement protection. The presentation reviews the development of ACI 350.5 and its differences from ACI 301 to help specifiers understand how to apply its requirements for liquid-containing concrete projects.

defined in ACI Specification 350.5.”
Mandatory Checklist Items
“The Specifier must include these
requirements in the Project Specification.”
Optional Checklist Items

Example of a slide with a subhead


Set the slide title in “title case”
Set subheads in “sentence case”
Generally set subhead to 36pt or smaller so it will fit on
a single line
The subhead color is defined for this template but must
be selected. In PowerPoint 2007, it is the fourth font
