Business Meeting:
The meeting was called to order at 8:35 AM in Nicolet B of the Marriott Renaissance
Center Hotel on Sunday, March 21, 2002. Introductions were given and opening
comments were made by Chairman Johnston. The minutes from Dallas were read and
approved as circulated.
Those present introduced themselves and corrections to the committee roster were made.
The next meeting will be in Phoenix, Arizona. The Chairman will apply for a Sunday
morning meeting time slot for 347 and Saturday evening for the Specification
Subcommittee.
Committee Document ACI 347-01
Chairman Johnston stated that all of the committee members should have received a
complementary copy of ACI 347-01. The following items requiring revision were noted:
1. Page 3, definition of Engineer/architect: Should be changed to read The
engineer, architect, engineering firm, architectural firm, or other agency issuing
project plans and specifications for the permanent structure or administering the
work under contract documents, or both. (Mary Hurd)
2. Page 6, section 2.1.5, last paragraph of the first column: Section 2.5.3 does not
exist. It should be changed to section 2.5. (Mary Hurd)
3. Page 8, Section 2.5 Shores, 7th bullet item: Backshoring should be one word.
4. Page 18 under Data Sources for Materials Concrete: Should read Precast
Concrete Units Used as Forms for Cast-in-Place Concrete, ACI 347.1R. (Mary
Hurd)
5. Page 18 under Materials: Change to read Glass-fiber-reinforced plastic forms
(Mary Hurd)
6. Page 18 under Data Sources for Materials Glass- fiber-reinforced plastic
forms: Change the reference to read Using Glass-Fiber-Reinforced Plastic
Forms. (Mary Hurd)
7. Page 5, Figure 2.1 at the lower right labeled Correct: Tie to both or set form ties
through both sides: The spandrel tie should be parallel to the deck. (David
Johnston)
III
Chairman Johnston requested that any other errata that the Committee finds should be
reported to him. He also questioned whether the Committee needs to review ACI 347.1R
(see item #4 on page II of the minutes) to determine if it is current.
SP-4 Formwork for Concrete Mary Hurd:
Mary Hurd provided the following written progress report on the status of the updating of
Formwork for Concrete as of April 15, 2002:
June 2001Questionnaire to committee asking for opinion in specific aspects of the
revision. Included questions on metrication, safety factor for form ties, shoring/reshoring
examples, loads during construction, plywood design, and new products and forming
methods, e.g. European systems. Twenty-one committee members responded and their
input is being used as chapter-by-chapter revisions are developed.
METRICATION: Strong (but not unanimous) was the vote to stay with customary
imperial units. Chairman Johnston submitted a request for TAC authorization and it was
granted, with the proviso that the foreword state that the document is applicable only in
the United States.
DESIGN STRESSES FOR LUMBER: The NFPAs National Design Specification for
Wood Construction is at last available this month, and I hope to have a copy by the time
of the committee meeting. Although advance information suggested that the only major
changes in allowable stresses will be for horizontal shear, many details for the design
chapters must nonetheless be checked against the base stress values of the NDS.
CHAPTER 5: Revision was sent out for review January 8, 2002. Six responses with
specific suggestions have been received. The draft added a simplified analysis of
shoring/reshoring with one level of shoring and two levels of reshoring; it also includes
full presentation of the new pressure formulas.
CHAPTER 4: Revision sent for review April 2.
CHAPTERS 1-3: Nearly complete; revision should be mailed by May 1. We have
received permission for CRSI to use information from their engineering data sheets in
Chapter 2 and elsewhere as needed.
CHAPTER 6: Work in progress; will be completed as soon as the NDS values can be
checked.
