RE: Codes referenced by 2009 IBC

Regarding ACI 350 and 350.3: I don't know what IBC 2009 references, but ACI 350-06 and ACI 350.3-06 are the latest versions for those standards.  The next version for these two standards is likely no sooner than 2011.

Subject: Codes referenced by 2009 IBC

All,
 
I'm a little light on work right now, so I'm trying to update a spreadsheet my company uses to give the structural design criteria for a project.  I want to incorporate the 2009 IBC as one of the code choices.  This has relavence to other design codes that are referenced by the 2009 IBC.  I don't currently have a copy of the 2009 IBC and I'm having trouble figuring out which design codes are referenced.  For example, is ASCE coming out with a ASCE 7-08, or will ASCE 7-05 still be the reference for design loads?  I know that ACI has published 318-08, but what about ACI 350 and 350.3?  Will the reference be ACI 350-09 and 350.3-09, or are the current 350-06 and 350.3-06 still valid?  For masonry, will there be a ACI 530-08 or is 530-05 to remain the referenced document?
