Cover for Concrete Walls
Cover for Concrete Walls
(OP)
I have a concrete shearwall with one wall on the exterior of the building. The wall will be coated with stucco and paint. Is this considered exposd to weather per ACI 318 Section 7.7.1?
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

RE: Cover for Concrete Walls
ACI commentary - for section 7.7, says, "The condition 'concrete surfaces exposed to earth or weather' refers to direct exposure to moisture changes and not just to temperature changes."
