Continuously wound ties (CWTs) are being used in place of conventional transverse reinforcement in concrete compression members to reduce waste and speed the construction process. To compare performance of CWTs with conventional ties, large-scale special boundary element specimens were designed, constructed, and tested under monotonically increasing axial compression.

Various codes, specifications, and reports provide different requirements/recommendations for anchor bolt (rod) installation in foundations. The article discusses the issues related to these requirements/recommendations and encourages designers to add 2 in. (50 mm) to the calculated design embedment length and to specify the elevation of the top of the anchor bolt.

The PS=Ø system allows engineers to design post-tensioned (PT) and reinforced concrete members with more restraint releases and without the construction schedule delays of traditional pour strips. With or without temporary PT stressing strips, PS=Ø couplers can be used as restraint relief details in slab-to-slab, slab-to-wall, and beam-to-beam joints.
