Updates to Anchorage Design in ACI 318-25

Join us for an insightful webinar that delves into the key updates and transformations introduced in the latest ACI 318-25 standard. This session specifically focuses on the changes in Chapters 17 and 25, which address anchorage and connection designs.

In Chapter 17, the 2025 version brings forth a modified approach to global safety, incorporating a factor that accounts for strut behavior. You’ll learn about the advantageous changes in interaction calculations and the importance of the newly referenced ACI 355.2-24 and 355.4-24 qualification documents for post-installed anchors, which encompass a significant update to seismic testing protocols.

The webinar will also cover the substantial updates in Chapter 25, particularly the calculation of the breakout capacity of bar groups, meeting the previous ACI 318-19 requirements. We’ll explore how hooked bar development lengths have been reassessed, reverting mainly to the ACI 318-14 calculations, and the implications of the newly referenced post-installed reinforcing bar standard, ACI 355.5-24.
