Terms of reference Background and scope Requirements for concrete structures have often been formulated as follows: concrete structures should be resistant, serviceable, durable, economic and aesthetic. Today, several further requirements or expectations regarding concrete structures have to be met, for example: they should be robust enough to avoid progressive collapse, should need only minimal maintenance, should be able to embed waste materials, should provide protection against accidents, should provide barriers against or following hazards, should be reusable or at least recyclable, should support sustainability in all possible ways, and in addition, provide adequate fire and earthquake resistance and be environmentally compatible. The fib Model Code for Concrete Structures 2010 (MC2010) not only updates the 1990 CEB/FIP Model Code, it is a future-oriented model code that includes an integrated life cycle perspective, addresses new types of high-performance materials and provides a holistic to the design of structures, based on defined performance requirements with regard to safety, serviceability, durability and sustainability. Special Activity Group 5's mission was to update and enhance the 1990 CEB-FIP Model Code to take into account the latest requirements and technologies in the design and construction of concrete structures. The updated Model Code should (a) serve as a basis for future codes for concrete structures, and (b) present new developments with regard to concrete structures, structural materials and new ideas in order to achieve optimum behaviour. Description of workflow and timeline SAG5 began its work in 2004. The first complete draft of MC2010 was published as Bulletins 55 and 56 in April and May 2010. After review and commentary by the Commission and National Delegations, the two volumes were revised and submitted to the General Assembly for discussion and approval. The final approved version of the fib Model Code for Concrete Structures 2010 was then published in March 2012 as fib Bulletins 65 and 66. In 2013 MC2010 will be published in hard cover and e-book versions by the published house Ernst & Sohn.

Collaboration with other groups All fib Commissions and Special Activity Groups have contributed to MC2010. In particular two Commissions created groups specifically dedicated to developing their contribution to MC2010: Task Group 6.6, "New Model Code – precast concrete" and Task Group 8.7, “Code-type models for concrete behaviour”. Target audience All researchers and practitioners involved in the design and construction of concrete structures, as well as national and international code committees. Expected outcome and delivery dates The final version of MC2010 (including editorial and minor technical revisions with respect to the version published as Bulletins 65 and 66) was delivered to the publisher in 2013. Publication of the hard cover and e-book editions is expected during the third quarter of 2013. Other activities of this group The following short courses on the fib Model Code for Concrete Structures 2010 have been held or are upcoming: • • •

June 2012, Milano, Italy, on 5 June 2012; September 2013, Buenos Aires, Argentina; October 2013, Vienna, Austria.

Further courses will be held in various locations around the world in 2014 and beyond. Furthermore a series of background articles is being published in 2012 and 2013 in fib's Structural Concrete Journal.
