Abstract:
Q. Where can I find tolerances for vertical alignment
of 24 in. (610 mm) long dowels placed in 2008?
Figure R2.2.10.3 of ACI 117-061 shows ±1/4 in.
(6 mm) vertical deviations over lengths that are less than or
equal to 18 in. (457 mm). ACI 117-102 indicates that the
tolerance on vertical alignment is ±1/2 in. (13 mm), but the
associated figure shows no dowel length. Why?
