Connections for Tilt-Up Wall Construction (EB110)
This 44-page manual describes connections commonly used in tilt-up construction. It includes design tables and 28 perspective drawings of details between wall panels and foundation, floor, adjacent wall panels, and roof. Details were obtained from engineering offices experienced in tilt-up design and from a review of current literature. Connection elements such as standard bolts, high-strength bolts, threaded inserts, expansion inserts, embedments, welding, dowels, grout, and bearing pads are discussed.

PCA Notes on ACI 318-05 Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete with Design Applications (EB705)
Designed to help you apply the provisions of ACI 318-05 to the design and construction of concrete structures, these Notes were prepared with engineers and architects in mind. PCA Notes is also a valuable aid to educators, undergraduate and graduate students, contractors, materials and product manufacturers, building code authorities, and inspectors. The 34 chapters of PCA Notes provide detailed coverage of ACI 318-05’s 22 chapters and four appendixes dealing with strut-and-tie models, alternative provisions for reinforced and prestressed concrete flexural and compression members, alternative load and strength-reduction factors, and anchorage to concrete. The chapters are introduced with a summary of code changes in 2005 and contain numerical examples that help design professionals to better understand and apply the code provisions.

Tilt-Up Load-Bearing Walls (EB074)
Use load tables to quickly and easily design tilt-up wall panels for gravity and wind forces. A "column model" is used to compute the load capacities of reinforced concrete tilt-up wall panels with one layer or two layers of reinforcement that rest on continuous footings. An approximate but rational means of evaluating the effects of isolated footings and sustained loads on the capacity of these slender walls is included. Design assistance in the form of load-capacity coefficient tables is also presented, as well as illustrative design applications. This third edition includes both English and metric units.

Concrete Systems for Homes and Low-Rise Construction Item Code (SP405)
Fast gaining on more traditional homebuilding materials, concrete systems save builders time, money, and headaches. Written by PCA experts, this resource provides expert, straightforward answers on concrete systems, including everything you want to know about availability of products, evaluating concrete systems for homes and low-rise buildings, requirements for application, managing projects, and much more. Based on case histories, field research, and hands-on-the-hammer experience, and with more than 325 photos and illustrations, this one-stop resource shows and tells what you want to know.
