Manual for Design and Detailings of Reinforced Concrete to Code of Practice for Structural Use of Concrete

A revised concrete code titled “Code of Practice for Structural Use of Concrete 2004” was formally promulgated by the Buildings Department of Hong Kong in late 2004 which serves to supersede the former concrete code titled “The Structural Use of Concrete 1987”. The revised Code, referred to as “the Code” hereafter in this Manual will become mandatory by 15 December 2006, after expiry of the grace period in which both the revised and old codes can be used.
