The code portion of this document covers the structural design, materials selection, and construction of environmental engineering concrete structures. Such structures are used for conveying, storing, or treating liquid, wastewater, or other materials, such as solid waste. They include ancillary structures for dams, spillways, and channels. These structures are subject to uniquely different loadings, more severe exposure conditions and more restrictive serviceability requirements than normal building structures. The commentary discusses some of the considerations of the committee in developing the ACI 350 Code, and its relationship with ACI 318. Emphasis is given to the explanation of provisions that may be unfamiliar to some code users. References to much of the research data referred to in preparing the code are given.
