Title |
Shear Resistance of Vertical Joints in Precast Concrete Large Panel Structural System |
Abstract |
33 precast concrete large panel vertical joint specimens were tested to investigate the shear resistant capacity of shear keys and loop bars.Test results show that :(1) the shear capacity of test specimens was three times larger than the design shear strength of shear keys and loop bars, approximately.(2) the test specimens which contain the loop bars show the much larger ductile behavior compared to those which contain shear keys only. |
