Abstract
- This paper, written in conjunction with the work of ACI Committee 348, Structural Safety, presents some thoughts and guidelines on avoidance of gross errors, the major cause of failure of structures. It is recognized that these thoughts are not new and that many of them are equally applicable to the design and detailing of structures in materials other than reinforced or prestressed concrete. Fur-thermore, they are not complete, for only the de-sign engineer, working on his specific project, can anticipate every possible danger flag. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
