“结构混凝土建筑规范要求”（“规范”）涵盖了用于建筑和非建筑结构（如适用）的结构混凝土的材料、设计和施工。该规范还包括现有混凝土结构的强度评估。涉及的主题包括:合同文件；视察材料；耐久性要求；混凝土质量、搅拌和浇筑；模板；预埋管道；施工缝；加固细节；分析与设计；强度和适用性；弯曲和轴向荷载；剪切和扭转；钢筋的开发和拼接；平板系统；墙壁；基脚；预制混凝土；复合受弯构件；预应力混凝土；外壳和折板构件；现有结构的强度评估；抗震设计规定； 结构素混凝土；附录A中的压杆和拉杆模型；附录B中的替代设计规定；附录C中的替代荷载和强度折减系数；以及附录D中的混凝土锚固。参考适当的ASTM标准规范，涵盖了施工中使用的材料的质量和测试。钢筋焊接参考相应的美国焊接协会（AWS）标准。该规范的使用包括在一般建筑规范中通过引用采用，早期版本已以这种方式广泛使用。代码的编写格式允许在不更改其语言的情况下进行此类引用。因此，不能包括执行规范部分要求或意图的背景细节或建议。评注就是为了这个目的而提供的。 委员会在制定《守则》部分时的一些考虑因素在评注中进行了讨论，重点是解释新的或修订的条款。在编写代码时引用的许多研究数据都是为了希望更详细地研究单个问题的用户而引用的。此外，还引用了其他文件，为执行该规范的要求提供建议。

The "Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete" ("Code") covers the materials, design, and construction of structural concrete used in buildings and where applicable in nonbuilding structures. The Code also covers the strength evaluation of existing concrete structures.Among the subjects covered are: contract documents; inspection; materials; durability requirements; concrete quality, mixing, and placing; formwork; embedded pipes; construction joints; reinforcement details; analysis and design; strength and serviceability; flexural and axial loads; shear and torsion; development and splices of reinforcement; slab systems; walls; footings; precast concrete; composite flexural members; prestressed concrete; shells and folded plate members; strength evaluation of existing structures; provisions for seismic design; structural plain concrete; strut and-tie modeling in Appendix A; alternative design provisions in Appendix B; alternative load and strength reduction factors in Appendix C; and anchoring to concrete in Appendix D.The quality and testing of materials used in construction are covered by reference to the appropriate ASTM standard specifications. Welding of reinforcement is covered by reference to the appropriate American Welding Society (AWS) standard.Uses of the Code include adoption by reference in general building codes, and earlier editions have been widely used in this manner. The Code is written in a format that allows such reference without change to its language. Therefore, background details or suggestions for carrying out the requirements or intent of the Code portion cannot be included. The Commentary is provided for this purpose. Some of the considerations of the committee in developing the Code portion are discussed within the Commentary, with emphasis given to the explanation of new or revised provisions. Much of the research data referenced in preparing the Code is cited for the user desiring to study individual questions in greater detail. Other documents that provide suggestions for carrying out the requirements of the Code are also cited.
