A new edition of the prescriptive design standards for exterior concrete walls for one and two family dwellings has recently been published by the Portland Cement Association (PCA). The new publication titled “PCA 100-2007, Prescriptive Design of Exterior Concrete Walls for One and Two Family Dwellings” applies to the design and construction of concrete footings, foundation walls, and above-grade concrete walls built with Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF) or traditional forms.
