Precast concrete structures are erected from individual prefabricated components, which are assembled on-site using different types of connections. In the present design of these structures, beam-to-column connections are assumed pin jointed. Bolted billet beam to-column connections have been used in the precast concrete industry for many years. They have many advantages over other jointing methods in component production, quality control, transportation and assembly. However, there is currently limited information concerning their detailed structural behaviour under vertical loadings. The experimental work has involved the determination of moment-relative rotation relationships for semi-rigid precast concrete connections in full-scale connection tests. The study reported in this paper was undertaken to clarify the behaviour of such connections under symmetrical vertical loadings. A series of full-scale tests was performed on sample column for which the column geometry and bolt arrangements conformed to successful commercial practice. Proprietary hollow core floor slabs were tied to the beams by 2T25 tensile reinforcing bars, which also provide the in-plane continuity across the connections. The contribution of the floor strength and stiffness to the flexural capacity of the joint is currently neglected in the design process for precast concrete frames. The flexural strength of the connections in the double-sided tests was at least 0.93 times the predicted moment of resistance of the composite beam and slab. The secant stiffness of the connections ranged from 0.94 to 1.94 times the flexural stiffness of the attached beam. In general, the double-sided connections were found to be more suited to a semi-rigid design approach than the single sided ones. The behaviour of double sided bolted billet connection test results are presented in this paper. The behaviour of single sided bolted billet connection test results is the subject of another paper.

Methods for the manufacture, erection, and assembly of heavy frame modules were proposed. Interferences among precast members were prevented by using bolted metal plates for dry precast beam-to-column joints during assembly with a clearance for tolerance implementing grouted concrete filler plates instead of metal filler plates. Clearances for tolerances were provided to avoid conflictions among components during erection phases. These gaps were, then, grouted by high-strength mortar. The constructability of new connections of a beam-to-column joint using bolted metal plates for precast structures was examined using a full-scale assembly test in which practical observations indicated that members could be aligned and placed accurately in both horizontal and vertical directions, leading to a fast and convenient assembling. Bolt holes of the endplate were properly aligned using couplers with 30 mm fastened length embedded in the columns. The assembly test demonstrated the erection safety and structural stability of the proposed joints that were without filler plates when they were subjected to heavy loads at the time of their erection. The facile and rapid assembly of precast beam-to-column connections with a 30 mm tolerance was observed. The proposed assembly method is rapid, sustainable, and resilient, replacing the conventional methods of concrete frame construction, offering a connection that can be used in constructing infrastructure, such as buildings and pipe-rack frames.

The composite structural system with reinforced concrete column and steel beam has some advantages in the structural efficiency by complementing the shortcomings between the two systems. The system, however, has also a lot of problems in earthquake-proof capacity and construction process because it is wet method of construction. So, this paper proposed PCS(Precast Concrete Column and Steel Beam) structural system with dry method of construction. Purpose of this study is to enhance merit and control failure mechanism by installing Dog-Bone on H-beam.

Nonlinear finite element analysis is conducted to predict the structural behavior of precast concrete column and steel beam connected by using bolted connections. The Nonlinear FEM program is based on the modified compression field theory which has good accuracy in the concrete structures. The link element is properly used to model the discontinuity between precast concrete column and steel beam. Predictions from the proposed model are compared with experimental results and it is concluded that structural behaviors of the composite structures, such as strength capacity, crack pattern and failure mode, can be predicted quite successfully.

Green Frame is precast concrete column-beam structure. There are three types on column connection. The coupler type which is one of the three, need to be improved because of unstability caused by pre-installation of column before casting the slab, and quality deterioration caused by lack of workspace. Therefore, in this study, new coupler connection type with thread rebar is suggested. The result of this study shall be used for the efficiency analysis of the new coupler connection.

건식공법이 가능하도록 기존의 접합 방식과 차별화 되는 PC 보-기둥 접합부를 개발하여 실용화하기 위한 기초 연구이다. 연속된 PC 기둥 양편에 위치한 보의 접합 단부를 고강도 관통형 연결재로 긴장하여 연결하는 'PC 보-기둥 맞댐 접합(BCJ_TB : precast beam column joints connected with thru-connects)'을 고안하고 실험적 연구를 수행하여 강도저하, 초기강성, 강성저하, 에너지소산능력 등의 내진성능을 분석하였다. 실험 결과에 기둥에서는 손상이 발생하지 않고 보 단부에서 압축파괴가 발생하는데, 이는 비부착 연결재의 초기긴장과 비부착 효과에 의하여 보 단부 콘크리트에 압축응력이 증가하기 때문인 것으로 분석되었다. 보 접합 단부에 CFRP로 구속 효과를 준 접합부의 성능이 상대적으로 우수하였고 네오프렌 패드로 보 기둥 접합면을 연결한 것이 다른 것에 비하여 초기강성을 제외하고는 우수한 내진성능을 보이는 것으로 분석되었다. 비부착 연결재를 사용한 접합부의 파괴모드를 개선하기 위하여 보 단부 콘크리트의 압축 성능을 향상시키고, 연결재의 변위를 적절히 조절할 수 있는 방법이 요구된다.

본 연구에서는 공동주택 리모델링에 활용할 수 있는 완전 건식공법에 의한 프리캐스트 콘크리트 보-기둥 연결부를 개발하는데 있다. 독일에서 개발한 DDC 연결부를 국내 실정에 적합하도록 그 개선모델을 제안하기 위하여 총 5개의 건식연결부 시험체를 제작하였다. 아울러, 아파트 외곽보로 활용할 경우를 고려하여, H형 철물을 사용하여 기둥과 보의 폭을 최소화하였다. 실험결과 보-기둥 연결부에 DDC 시스템을 적용하게 되면 역학적 특성의 향상을 기대할 수 있었으나 기둥에 발생한 경사균열에 의하여 주도적으로 파괴 메커니즘이 형성되는 취약성을 초래하였다. 고가의 DDC 시스템의 덕타일 로드를 대신하여 고강도 강봉을 적용한 공법은 DDC 연결부와 역학적 특성은 유사한 거동을 보였으며, 파괴 메커니즘은 더 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 연결부에 연결철근을 쉬스관 안에 그라우팅하여 부착시키게 되면, 비부착 시키는 공법보다 역학적 특성을 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 주상복합건물에 적용가능한 건식공법에 의한 프리캐스트 콘크리트 보-기둥 연결부에 대하여 실험을 통하여 분석하였다. 현재 국내에 활용하고 있는 프리캐스트 콘크리트 보-기둥 연결부와 현재 미국에서 사용되고 있는 DDC 연결부, 그리고 DDC 연결부와 개선된 연결부에 포스트텐션을 도입한 시험체를 제작하였고, 실험을 통하여 그 거동을 평가하였다. 실험 결과 보-기둥 연결부에 DDC 시스템을 적용하게 되면 연결부의 강도와 연성능력의 향상을 기대할 수 있었으나 파괴 메커니즘이 보에 에너지를 분산시키지 않고, 연결부에서 사인장 균열에 의하여 에너지를 소산시키게 되어 연결부가 파괴되는 단점이 나타났다. 개량 DDC 연결부는 기둥에 사인장균열이 발생하지 않고 보다 연성적인 파괴거동을 보여주었다. 또한 보-기둥 연결부에 포스트텐션의 도입은 연결부 강도의 증가는 크게 기대할 수 없었으나 자가조정(self-centering) 등을 통하여 연결부의 안정성 및 연성능력에 기여하는 것으로 나타났다.

The precast reinforced concrete frame system is a method for industrialization of construction. However, the seismic performance factor of this structural system is not explicitly clarified in some existing building codes. In this paper, the seismic performance factor for the existing precast concrete building frame systems with cast-in-situ reinforced shear walls were evaluated. Nonlinear behavior of the precast beam-column joints and cast-in-situ reinforced shear walls were considered in the modeling of the structures. The ATC-19's coefficient method was used for calculating the seismic performance factor and the FEMA P-695's approach was adopted for evaluating the accuracy of the computed seismic performance factor. The results showed that the over-strength factor varies from 2 to 2.63 and the seismic performance factor (R factor) varies from 5.1 to 8.95 concerning the height of the structure. Also, it was proved that all of the examined buildings have adequate safety against the collapse at the MCE level of earthquake, so the validity of R factors was confirmed. The obtained incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) results indicated that the minimum adjusted collapse margin ratio (ACMR) of the precast buildings representing the seismic vulnerability of the structures approximately equaled to 2.7, and pass the requirements of FEMA P-695.

A simple method of assessing the risk of overturning of precast reinforced concrete columns is presented in this paper. The displacement-based methodology introduced herein is distinguished from conventional force-based codified methods of aseismic design of structures. As evidenced by results from field tests precast reinforced concrete columns can be displaced to a generous limit without sustaining damage and then fully recover from most of the displacement afterwards. Realistic predictions of the displacement demand of such (rocking) system in conjunction with the displacement capacity estimates enable fragility curves for overturning to be constructed. The interesting observation from the developed fragility curves is that the probability of failure of the precast soft-storey column decreases with increasing size of the column importantly illustrating the "size effect" phenomenon.
