In this study, static tests were done on the joints between precast manholes and the joints between manhole and sewer. The static loading tests in not only elastic range but also ultimate state of model members were carried out to investigate the bond strength and ultimate load of a joint of precast manholes. Specimens were tested in bending, horizontal shear, horizontal shear of circumferencial direction and direct tension. The results of tests indicated good structural performance of the joints between precast manholes and the joints between manhole and sewer.
