The Manual can be purchased as a sixbook reference set, a CD-ROM or an online subscription. Also new from the SCI is “SP225 — Serviceability of Concrete: A Symposium Honoring Dr. Edward G. Nawy.” The symposium, held during the 2005 ACI Spring Convention, honored the distinguished career of Dr. Nawy. This publication contains technical papers on aspects of concrete serviceability, emphasizing concrete cracking and deflection. “SP226 — Autoclaved Aerated Concrete: Properties and Structural Design” covers a wide range of practical case studies and research projects on different types of ultra-lightweight concrete, with particular focus on autoclaved aerated concrete. “SP227 — Shrinkage and Creep of Concrete” covers diverse aspects of shrinkage and creep. Some papers discuss prediction and assessment, while others consider the behavior of early-age concretes that are restrained from shrinking.
