I am interested in discussing the design of beam-column joints with any structural engineers who design reinforced concrete building frames. I am thoroughly familiar with the design issues...........but am seeking to find out if, and under what conditions, practicing engineers are using the design recommendations in ACI 352 for buildings that do not have to be designed for seismic loading. <br>
<br>
Specifically...........are the provisions for joint shear in ACI 352 used to size the columns??.........are designers considering shear reinforcing even though it is not recommended by the standard??
