I am working on a structural design for a facility in Kabul. I am using the military's UFC Design Code (along with IBC and ASCE). Unfortunately, these references do
not provide a design value for ground snow loads for this area. Any advice.
ACI 318 section 12.4 states that develpoment length for compression and tension for three bars bundles shall be increased 20%; four bar bundles 33%. there are other things to consider that section 7.6.6 talks about, one being staggering of the bundle terminations.
