Abstract:
The article discusses slender wall design at service loads with the new expression for the effective moment of inertia introduced into ACI 318-19(22), which now uses a reduced cracking moment for computing deflection. A recommendation is also made to provide a limiting condition for the axial wall load to avoid erroneous calculation of the factored moment by direct calculation.
