Introducing a Precast Moment Resistant Beam-to-column Concrete Connection Comparable with In-situ One

In this study it was attempted to introduce a type of precast beam-to-column connection which in spite of being simple is of the same efficiency and performance as in-situ beam-to-column connection. For this purpose, the performance of proposed precast beam-to-column connection at exterior joint of a four story structure was analysed by pseudo dynamic analysis and compared with that of in-situ beam-to-column connection. The force-displacement data of proposed precast (SP1) and equivalent in-situ connection (SP2) with verification analysis result are shown here.
